The horsepower rating for 09-10 Dodge Drag Pak, entries with the 426 cubic inch engine and a factory rating of 450 currently rated at 474, has been increased by sixteen horsepower, to 490 horsepower; for Stock Eliminator.

So, how did the Camaro and the Mustang not get HP when the Challenger did? Does AHFS stand for Afraid to Hit Fords and Shivies? What's the deal doe?

AHFS does not apply to cars that are in the Factory Stock Showdown as Arnett, Skinner, and Barton were. Helms was not in the Showdown; therefore, he got the hit when he went 1.209 under. If Helms ran in the Showdown, as he has in the past, he wouldn't have gotten the hit.
