This year at Indy we had 125 stockers and 80 SS that ran .850 under or faster we were there most runs in qualifying had a corr factor 1.080 to 1.095 so obviously all of these cars are capable of going a second under in decent air leave sea level tracks out of the convention. So so basically with the AHFS rules are we are saying that all these combos need hp especially if we are saying .850 under is the number. We have stock and ss combos that have been factored for 55 years that can still go over a second under . The indexes have not been adjusted since 2009 or 2010 I believe a lot of rules have been changed and better valve train technology everyone that is working on their stuff is faster . So in the end do to want to work on your stuff just to get hp and slow it down or do you really want to work to go faster and set higher goals for yourself? I choose going faster. This is still a performance based class and should stay that way.
