If you went to a test and tune and went i.25 or more you would not get horsepower. The time trial on Saturday morning was the same situation.

I dont blame Jeff at all for putting this combo together. The problem is NHRA! Not factoring new combos even close. This is what is a JOKE

Everbody talks about the old combos not factored right back in the day but these combos have been work on for 30+ years and given enhancements to get to where they are today. Now all of a sudden they are (atleast) 50hp behind!!!

NHRA what a JOKE

I like watching some cars running 10.30s at 100mph as well!!

I thought that dropping the index .3 was the cure for everything in the S/SS world as we know it and correct factoring had nothing to do with anything.

Congratulations to Jeff T. A great racer! A super nice car! A great combination! And one class act!

More than 50. That car of Teuton's has 150 hp on our 360. Ours isn't particularly fast, but you get the point...
