AHFS Change

[tylerw5089]

I frequent this page often, but I do not engage on here as we all know how individuals can and do react on these sites. The majority of the time the threads go off topic rather quickly and then bickering occurs amongst people and it all goes to hell in a handbasket. I noticed there was a thread mentioning a "survey" was sent out about the AHFS sent out in the last week or so by SRAC members. I reached out to one of the SRAC members to get some substance as to what the survey was/is.

After understanding that not all SRAC members provided a survey to their ACTIVE racers, I thought I would take a the gamble and see if there could be any valuable feedback from the patrons here. NHRA is in discussion about making changes to the AHFS. The general question is, do you think the AHFS needs to work more? Meaning does it need to hit combinations of cars quicker and make parity adjustments?

In the simplest form the answers needed are:
A-leave the AHFS alone and keep doing things as we have been.
B-adjust the rules of the AHFS in an effort to more quickly fix fast combinations.

Sorry all, I had the 4 that Darren added. My thought was at the very least let's see if change is even desired. If it is not, then showing the possible changes doesn't seem to be necessary.

If the mineshaft rule remains in effect, I would like to see the automatic HP raised to 1.30.

If they do make a big change, I feel that .650 is too high. Maybe .500 is more reasonable.

Ya know, if we had more in the way of Tech and less in the way of enhancements we wouldn't have to have a poll regarding how to "more quickly fix the fast combos".

Turns out i've been told to remember that our SRAC guy ( Kent Hanley) came around the pits with a survey and sent out e-mails earlier this year .Sorry but I had no idea those and this round were connected since the NHRA already made new rules for next year .
