If they would make the rules similar to the P.C. Richard race we just had at Atco it would make more sense. I would change a couple things.
P.C. Richard FS/SA - 10.00 Index - 3500 lbs Supercharged FS/SB - 10.20 Index - 3400 lbs 451+ N/A FS/SC - 10.50 Index - 3300 lbs 300-450 N/A After running a few of these events I think this would work a little better. The weights are a little more realistic. And I'm not knocking what Mr. Richard has done for us. I greatly appreciate everything he does for the sport of Drag Racing. Plus he and his crew are top notch people. Revised FS/SA - 10.00 Index - 3500 lbs Supercharged FS/SB - 10.30 Index - 3500 lbs 451+ N/A FS/SC - 10.40 Index - 3250 lbs 401-450 N/A FS/SD - 10.50 Index - 3250 lbs 300-400 N/A The V10's can't weigh much less than 3500 with an average driver and battery so I figure if you added 100 lbs and a tenth to the index it would even out. Based on actual timeslips the smaller N/A motors could use 50 lbs less. The 426's, 427's, and 428's should have a tenth stiffer index. There is no reason why the 345, 370, and 392 should carry the same index as the bigger ones. Just my opinion. In the end, even if you think your combination has a disadvantage you should run these events to support the cause. Plus It helps show just how fast or slow you really are. If you don't show then we'll never know. It really bothers me when we have special races like this and certain people choose not to run it. Especially when they are there but in a different class. |
