Re: 1.20 under at Belle Rose
What if mineshaft was determined by actual weather conditions rather than how many sandbaggers show up. I'm sure NHRA could afford their own weather station, make the determination in the morning what the DA is and if it's less than the nominal elevation of the track, it's mineshaft for the day. Just looking for ideas.

Re: 1.20 under at Belle Rose
Does anyone know exactly what combo LaPorte was running, now that I think about it I thought he ran the 241 combo not the 272 350 combo?

Re: 1.20 under at Belle Rose
Cooter, I like the way you think, but it is a 272, now 281 combo, same
as yours and mine. J.R. |

Re: 1.20 under at Belle Rose
Did that race meet the requirement to be considered mine shaft condition in stock?

Re: 1.20 under at Belle Rose
Mineshaft yes but 1.20 under is still an instant hit ofcourse. From what I was told the weather was it was incredibly fast and all I can say is under those circumstances he may have not known how fast he was going.

Re: 1.20 under at Belle Rose
I've been on here preaching for a while now about the AHFS needs to be brought up to date. How long has it been the same!!!! Not many of you jumped on board. In those kind of conditions I bet there are a lot of combo's that could go 1.20 or more under. I personal wished more went 1.20 under. BP
