Englishtown 8.50 Index Rules Update

[Michelle]

CLASS RULES…
To qualify for the 8.50 Index race, you must be 9.00 seconds or quicker. In order to expand the eliminator in the 1st round, the qualifying field must be 9.00 or quicker for all cars. In qualifying, if anyone runs quicker than 8.50, you are placed at the bottom of the ladder. If you run quicker than 8.50 in eliminations, in a double breakout, the driver closest to 8.50 wins. If you run faster than your car chassis is certified to run by the NHRA, you will receive a warning. You will get three warnings. After the third warning, penalties will be enforced included round loss and loss of points.

According to Keith, there was supposed to be a 1% window, meaning you could go an 8.42 or so and be OK. Granted, the goal is to go 8.50, but are you telling me if our car is certified to 8.50 and we happen to go an 8.48...we're going to get a "warning"? Please clarify.
