Re: Factory Cars to Pro Stock in 2018 - Speculative Web Arti
I believe the NHRA has zero interest in revitalizing Pro Stock and would prefer Pro Mod as a replacement.
The theory being discussed on this thread is a pipe dream for those of us who witnessed the birth of Pro Stock. The NHRA wants to simplify not complicate things. |

What the heck, that's what the street car should look like, it's better and WAY more beautiful looking.

True. I love my wimpy V6 street brick. Inferno Red, sort of like Candy Red.

If you would put a flat hood on the new NHRA Camaro, it looks a lot like a Toyota Camry.

Re: Factory Cars to Pro Stock in 2018 - Speculative Web Arti
Better show up with a truckload of sheet metal. Your going to need it. So if I'm reading this correctly, move the Factory Race Cars currently running stock.... Into a newly formed Pro Stock?

Re: Factory Cars to Pro Stock in 2018 - Speculative Web Arti
Pro stock should be left to its own end.
FS cars should have their own classes heads up only. 3200 lb. FSA fastest 350cu in supercharged. FSB 426/427/428 NA FSC 350 NA no FS cars allowed in stock This will put*stock guys in these classes. The pro stock guys/galls who no longer can afford PS can go to these classes. Dan

Keep in mind once you add PRO to the class you will increase costs by 10 fold. I know you guys have great R&D programs but when you put a staff of several brilliant racing teams on it they will find stuff that will cost everyone money to keep up...

Re: Factory Cars to Pro Stock in 2018 - Speculative Web Arti
why not net the P/S cars keep from the back of the block all the same as now. Then let them have a certain cubic inch, accepted block, factory heads no billet pieces and a power adder that is the same for everyone. I know John Mihovetz goes 5s with a lot of factory pieces..
