You should ask one A/SA racer from NC what he thinks about Hensons run. Total BS.

If he didn't make weight due to the fact that the radiator was emptied don't you think that's a rule infraction that needs to be addressed.
All that's required is a simple yes or no.Not a lawyer answer.
Why didn't the final qualifying sheet show the DQ for the final run?Answer anyone?

That's pretty simple logic...

Biill,

AHFS rules don't say anything about weight. They say you go 1.40 under the sea level index you get 3.25% HP period. If you are dumb enough to run your car light and go 1.40 under then you probably deserve a bigger hit than that. Hensen didn't weigh, no fuel check, and no tear down to verify legal motor. He got 15 HP the following Monday. Sorenson should get the same and a vacation for altering weight after the run before the scales. They are not novice racers and know better than to do what they did.
