Maybe I missed this in an earlier post, what class will this car fall into? FS/A, A/SA, etc...

Scorched Earth at Indy then. If they don't like it, they can lump it.

This may come as a surprise, but my mother was an English teacher for many years and now a librarian. I get it honest.

If people got as snarky about spelling and grammar in person as they do on their keyboards, most of us would be in jail or ready med lol.

Whether you like it or not, do you believe adding a new manufacturer to the guide is a good thing? Do you agree with the way Gump's car was prepared?
Which model Supra ?
The Turbo 4 cyl. version or 6 cyl. version ?

We are working only on the six-cylinder at the moment (B58).

NHRA has been allowing a live axle swap for years in IRS cars..nothing new here. Personally I don't care if it's a 12bolt 9" ford or Chrysler 8 3/4. Maybe NHRA is considering clean up and down time at national events if they mandate a smaller unit.
I think if I was Darren I would be asking for a 12bolt considering parasitic losses with a Ford 9"

"Net" is another word for sum. In this instance, a Net Positive or Net good means that the sum of all of the parts or implications of this subject matter adds up to be a good thing. Maybe you don't like that it has a Ford rear-end, but that is outweighed by adding a new manufacturer to the guide and the potentiality of including new, younger racers to STK.

So:
net good=you are for it
net bad=you are against it
Just curious how many "younger racers" have the financial resources to be racing a a new Supra, Cobra Jet Mustang, COPO Camaro, or Drag Pak Challenger? The vast majority of late model factory race cars that I have seen, are owned by people that have gray (if any!) hair,

Coming soon
Hopefully by Indy , this combination is actually in the Guide, so that Tech have some casting numbers and specifications to compare against in the barn.
