If you fuel check and weigh then it should count. The CIC race is not an NHRA event it's done by the track just like all the combo's that are not put on by NHRA, You can go as fast as you want at your local combo without penalty.

Why on earth are you guys against it? For years you could go to an altitude track and whack a record with virtually no chance of a hit. Before that for years records didn't count in the AHFS. I had some records that were way under.
So why not have a place you can go to a let it all hang out. If you can't run with the fast cars you aren't really going to hold a record long anyway.
I can't see how this hurts anyone? It might get quite a few cars down there.

AHFS= Automatic Help For Slugs

I'm not trying to start a ruckus, just wanted to understand why this seems to be an issue. Can someone explain the relationship between the Class Index and the National Record? How was the Index originally determined? I realize we just lost .30 recently, but can someone explain why?

If the National Record gets "hammered" at this event, what effect will that have on the Index next time someone try's to set the Record and has to trigger the AHFS to do it. Not that I'll have to worry about doing it, of course!

Bruce, I have every Godzilla movie ever made, and in English and Japanese, except for that thing in the 90's. That was not Godzilla. Do you know something I don't know?

May 16, 2014 release. Warner Brothers will distribute a nitty gritty version of Godzilla's early years. The trailer is bad ***.
