Getting to .40 under in a brand new combination that nobody has ever tried is excellent! From the MPHs I saw, it definitely has the potential to go quicker. No matter what, it's still something new and different - and new and different Stockers are way, way cool!

It's a shame that someone has to put a roll bar in a car like this, just to run high 12's.
NOT the way to get new blood into Stock classes.
C'mon NHRA Fix this deficiency .

Why would you need a roll bar in a car that's '08 or newer to run 12's?

Rule Book says so. Any Stocker M/S and above regardless of ET and ANY convertible.

Would they ever fall under the '08 and up 10.00 and slower rule?

Don't think so.
I thought the new cars had to be bone stock to use that exemption.

That's how the rule was originally written, now it says factory safety equipment, air bags, ABS, DOT tires.
