I'm asking this because I've been struggling with what the person responsible for making the tuning calls/adjustments should be referred to as. Over the last several years NHRA teams have started referring to the head position as the Crew Chief. Maybe I'm wrong, but I don't see people like Ed McCulloch, Dale Armstrong, Austin Coil, Tommy Delago, Jimmy Prock, Mike Neff, and so forth as Crew Chiefs. I still think of them as Engine Tuners, or Tuners. To me, the position of Crew Chief is more along the lines of how a NASCAR team operates. In other words, you don't see Chad Knaus tuning Jimmie Johnson's engine. Just like you don't see Mike Neff sitting on a pit box instructing others. The reason I'm seeking the boards help is that I've been trying to keep track of yearly results on a race by race basis, and have switched back and forth between the title of Crew Chief or Tuner.
If it helps, I could post a PDF example of what I'm working on.
For the record, I have no interest in trying to profit from this, as most of the information is readily available on the web. This is simply a fun personal project.
