Stick vs. Auto index

Rick I do not think my car could run with Kips car with his 10 teen somthing. Robin Browns 9.89 run killed the chevy IIs in SS/K there hp is now 241 ves 230 for the autos and 230 in the GT classes so you have to look at the gt runs when comparing to SS/KA. Plus the fact that there was only 3 cars in SS/K. Now as far as alt corected records most of us set them at the tracks we run at. How many cars out east have a 2500 ft tuneup this is the air we run in all the time. Maybe my car is different but I ran a 49 at earlviile and my record is a 52 set at great bend which is corected. Now last week at kearney the air was at 3500 ft at a track that is at 2100 ft. but we did have a tail wind. But untill the cars run a honest door handle to door handle can we start looking at it right. Tom
