BTW, my quickest pass was 1.007 under. And that only happened once. So there's that.

Tony, Email Pat C and ask for an explanation. That’s what I did to find out I missed the cut off by .004.

James, it's my understanding that if there are two runs of 1.00 or faster under the index, that triggers something. And then the NHRA looks at the combination's average, giving H.P. at the end of the year. There are other guys running my combo and they have gone over a second under. So, I'm guessing that's what did it. I just wish I had known this was happening. |

I still say lowering the indexes makes more sense.

Not financially. It will just push/keep more out.

Bullet is making new slower camshaft designs along with Total Seal "No Seal" piston rings. They come with NHRA's seal of approval. They cost more than what we have been using but there are Guaranteed to slow you down. Steve Teeter Stk/SS 620 |

"slower camshaft designs along with "No Seal" piston rings."
I already have them. They don't work. ;-)
