A stick Challenge 2010- INDY

Hey Jim, you need to lobby the NHRA to get the index fixed to where it does'nt penalize a person a full tenth just for running A over B!!!! When a person might be on the bubble of getting in, this will make a diff! I think this would get more of the B stick drivers to come and play AND make a better show for all!

IMO!!!

Well put. That is why I decided to stay in B. Didn't want to take that chance. Hard to tell what the bump is going to be with the index changes.

Looks like it will be a good "challenge" , good luck to all today.My guess is that a few went to "B" because they were worried about qualifying, and liked the B index better. Have fun, I am sure wishing I could've joined you
