Complete stats for TAD for the past two years..........

Guys, I have compiled the most extensive stats ever for the TAD Class comparing A/Fuelers and BAD's head to head for the 2002 and 2003 season. Go to my site and draw your own conclusions.

Thanks Dean

 

Great job Dean

Do you have stats on % of cars that did not qualify?

 

For a price, LOl! No I did not do the non qualifiers

Dean,
Good post and I am sure that took sometime to organize. You know all the numbers and facts are important at times when stats are needed to prove a point. Changes are needed to provide Parity between the two types of cars no doubt. They need to be applied and monitored.
Racers need to understand (and I think most do) that in a class where two totally different types of cars are mixed in as the TAD's and A/Fuelers, that change will be an on going thing -Parity is a necessary factor that NHRA must maintain.
Just as myself, there are teams that want to run blown cars - PERIOD. Just as there are A/Fuel guys out there with the same passion.
If this this cannot be accepted by the individual teams - the alternatives are slim.
Again - Thanks for the effort

Dan,
How fast do you think you can make your car run?

Just a note:
30 cars entered, 11 AFD - 19 BAD, 10 AFD qualified - 6 BAD qualified, top five spots AFD.

ET difference between quickest AFD and quickest BAD right at a tenth.

Just my observation
