This cost factor will be the final nail in most people not going into this class.

I am trying to build a car that will run .3 under the index without all of these expensive add-ons.



I think you can easily get 1/2 second under the index, that other half is the high dollar side and as you get closer to the second or more under those hundredths are very costly. No one has beat the odd ball combos to death yet and NHRA is soft on those indexs, so go for it. One example, 69 340 and 383 are hp factored the same, which one is softer?
