Indy AHFS Poll

Frank Castros · 05-09-2021, 09:51 AM

What good is it to have a car capable of running 1.5 under the index if you don't use it? The AHFS is flawed only because the indexes and horsepower ratings are out of wack. How cool were the early independent races that allowed you to showcase your cars? In my opinion it was awesome.
Mr. Downing, I voted because I'm a former racer who spent lots of money and time on my race cars, a long time member and if you don't like it, get a life.

The best part of the Edelbrock head is 40# off the nose. That is real important when you have 300+# in the driver’s seat. The worst part is getting the runners to size, they are way to big. In no way are they a magic Bullet. With the weight off the nose the car works better.

Anyone who has a combo capable of running 1.5 under the "index" in their class doesn't have an "index" problem. It's in the wrong class and running off of the wrong "index"! They have a horsepower problem!
Is all of this WOKE crap starting to influence S/SS Racing now? Ya take advantage of all of the "candy" handed out by the Tech Dept. and work the AHFS for all of the givebacks that you're entitled to and now that your combo can go 1.5 under and hurt itself ya want to change the indexes and screw the other 50 combos in the class!

Frank Castro’s you should spend some of that time and money you claim to have and show up at the race track with the rest of us.
I find it funny all the I Used to race a long time ago guys and guys that don’t race. want to voice there options on a class they don’t Compete in.

Frank Castros · 05-10-2021, 07:50 AM

My name is Castros not Castro and there a plenty of members of this forum who know my record as a racer and why I don't currently compete is none of your business.

Well Frank if your going to throw stones you should be able to take them when someone throws them back. I guess if you don’t like it you should take your own advice (if you don’t like it get a life) or get off the keyboard. What are you a long time member of? NHRA lol anyone can pay $129 for 12 national dragsters a year.
