David Eaton had a bad ass, winning combination.. I can see where he would be upset with altitude corrected index hits, because the indexes ARE bogus.. and I don't care what formula is used.. these altitude adjusted hits have hurt Comp Eliminator, NO DOUBT..
You can go back in the records on this forum, and you will find that I have been voicing my opinion AGAINST altitude adjusted indexes forever... do you really need to boast about being a 70+ under player at an altitude adjusted track??.. or can you just show up with your fast car, keep all the indexes the same, and win the race.. if you're 3 tenths slow at one of these tracks, so is everyone else... altitude adjustments are BS, and so are those indexes... and apparently, as you have read, put a great competitor on the shelf.... these are the things that the SRAC reps should be throwing on the table of NHRA..
Is David Eaton the only one??... I would say, probably not... but it would be great to hear from people exactly why they are no longer racing Comp...
