Am I missing something?

John made a very good point when he said, "Whole different time and tech..."
That has been my point since these new cars first appeared in 2008. They are exactly what you get if you build a new car according to the current rules. Which is also exactly how we got COPO Camaros in 1969.
I have two cars that I am running that have the production block, head castings, and rockers. They also run with true hydraulic lifters and beehive springs. How many Stock Racers can still say that?
I have said over and over that I feel some combinations probably shouldn't have made the cut.
You only miss what you refuse to see...
