Bob, here’s the one through the Dallas National and Rockingham D2 race....

I could be blind but I didn’t see the 2015 Camaro 376 combo listed.

It’s there, only one run over 1 under so no review with avg not meeting the threshold anyway.

7 combo’s get adjustments by AHFS, meanwhile there’s pages and pages of HP Requests from Competitors. None of this is illegal, of course, and if the rules allow it, we, as competitors, should take advantage.

That said...something tells me NHRA’s going to put a stop to this. Feels like, by the number of requests/adjustments, that the use of the process is much less...subtle...than it has been in prior years.

Jared, keep in mind this is the first year of only one review period.

"Take advantage" are the key words as a list this long seems to mean that racers are taking advantage of the system and even worse, of each other. Writing letters instead of working hard, just plain terrible.

Same rules as last year I think, I could be wrong.

Rather than begging horsepower reductions, I know one B/SA car that is busy making more power. I'm sure you'll see it next year.

It’s the usual SUSPECTS year after year. It is a shame because there are combos out there that really need ASSISTANCE ....Wonder who will be the first one that walks around the pits with their CHEST stuck out after they record a one second under run ?? ......

This is why I care less and less about my class for each year going,I KNOW of guys that decided to loose headsup races not to mess up their request for taking HP off next year,this is just to silly for me anymore,good ting it's gonna make my exit a lot easier than I first though!
