National Opens and AHFS

Pistol Pete · 01-12-2013, 07:10 PM

I think at the Opens they should be allowed to go all out with no penalty.
My car & i'm sure other small block carb motors Run sooo much better in cool air
then they can run in 90 degree humid air.

On the other hand, the new cars probably can run better then the older cars in any air.

I do not think New or Old Cars should get penalized at the Opens.

There are enough races during the year where these new cars can get H.P. from anyway.

Just my .03 cents

I would imagine the tech guys will be super busy at the teardown barn at those national opens.

Still, it will be fun to watch some racers hang it all out.

They wouldn't observe these runs, oh say just for fun, then make some adjustments in a couple of years as is their perogative.....just "trust" us......turn them loose....have some fun boys

Hey,
They're called 'OPENS' let everyone run wide OPEN! It would definitely help car count. I for one would love to see all these great Stockers and Super Stockers run flat out.
