Re: What Stock rules would you change?
So who determines "un-competitive combos"? You?

We allow IHRA classes in the AZSSSA but take off the three tenths for qualifying. Only problem might be in the Midwest, where they have their races in conjunction with an open or Divisional. Oh well ..Chasing gp's isn't cheap.

If someone triggers the review they should be torn down and checked for legality same as the automatic 1.20 threshold. Not all of us are world beaters and still like running stock and super stock.

Re: What Stock rules would you change?
Rename S/S to Bracket 1 and stock to Bracket 2. That's what it already is !!!!!!! Or combine S/S and Stock into one eliminator ! Again stock is almost there already !

Here's the final Q sheet from one of the slowest non-factored tracks in the country. https://www.dragracecentral.com/DRCS...r2019#indextop How many cars are less than .4 under? How many actually belong there? I see two. How's that gonna kill anything? NHRA needs to bring performance back into S/SS .You can't have their own announcers complaining about 1000" runs..or people sand bagging to lower their averages all the time. It will become totally unwatchable, like the throttle stop classes. So you think .4 is too much? Or maybe you think they should raise them up some? Then you'd have more guys really running down the averages, so the fast guys don't get hit, ever. How's that going to help the current problem? BTW, better get used some index hit, anyway..Maybe not .4, this time.

No Dwight, it would have to be someone above my pay grade.

Re: What Stock rules would you change?
Billy billy billy ... wth ? You got a pile of poorly factored cars you wanna make playa’s ?? 20% really 20% ... let’s see that’s about what the ffford got off seen any of them in the top 10 qualifier since then ??? Jim hale gets 43off a 383 /315 down to 272 and is #1 and admits it makes well over 500 on dyno ... and that’s only 15% > how about you pick a combo at whatever it is rated and race it if it’s a slug you picked like **** >>> it’s not Bernie sanders socialist stock everyone isn’t guaranteed to run a second under 🤔🤔🤔
Maybe 5 hp off after two years of racing and $5000 receipts during that time 😳😳 Captain 😎

Re: What Stock rules would you change?
Yup. Right up there with a roll bar requirement in a 12.85 car (13's at altitude)
