Jeff,
I disagree with you assessment that the wrong engine, carb & tranny makes no difference in the Shoe polish rounds. I think it could. If a guy has a small engine class and he has trouble making it run the index all he has to do is up the engine size or cheat it up someway and he is in the program instead of out. I would be pissed if a guy that was not even capable of running the index legally got in the program and beat my honest/legal car.

It could/would affect qualifying positions in general.

Valid point on a car not qualifying. Also Adger thanks on the high altitude adjustments a couple weeks ago it worked.

I think this is all a tempest in a teapot. From what the NHRA put out, there will be ample opportunities to give everyone a once over either in the staging lanes or at the scales. The bottom line (for them) is there will be one less day in a national event with one less day of salaries and overhead.
