3. Two hits of -1.00 under, automatic hp on Monday, the adverage just does not work. I.e. 396 /375

1)Wrong........That means you'll be penalized for not weighing exactly your minimum.What do you do about scale fluctuations.I always try to be about 30 # over to make up for scale error.So I get penalized for not taking a chance of scaling light?Think you can get through a race weighing at minimum without being bounced for being light?

2)Wrong.......I'm not a rocket scientist but there is no firm formula for a cars performance at the 1/8th mile.

3)I'm not sure of that.

Larry you need better arguments for the inequities in the AHFS.
