Still my favorite class. I don't watch the Fuel cars.

Still my favorite pro class too. The Mopars will catch up in a year or two if the funding is there. IDK what the summit boys have figured out,but I swear greg andersons car sometimes sounds like it's going to die right before he starts the burnout!

It seems that Chevrolets dominate pro stock.......qualifying and eliminations. How about making a weight adjustment, subject to change, and give the Mopars 50 pounds and ford's 100 pounds. Change when necessary to keep it equal.

I am sure people will say..""work harder and you will go faster".....that hasn't happened. I would like to see qualifying within a hun.

HAHAHA AHFS system I think that it will work

The engine now in Alan's car was purchased from Elite. .




I don't believe that for a minute... I know both Johnson's... The only way I would believe that is if Roy looked me in the eye and told me that... Good internet rumor and I believe that all it is....

Pretty sure he was referring to Alan Prusiensky. Not Alan Johnson.

Totally agree 100%. Today's pro stock cars look like space ships instead of the models they are supposed to resemble. Body templates used are way too liberal. Factory stockers are more exciting to watch nowadays.

Other than the Camaro & Corvette (Which I don't care for anyway), can you tell the new cars on the street apart, without reading the nameplates? Wife and I were talking about that when we were out today. They all look so much alike anymore. Run them all through a wind tunnel....

It's good, very close heads up racing. MOPAR needs a better cylinder head casting. Get off that small Hemi crap. They used to have a very good wedge casting, Allen Johnson was very fast then.
Hate to see Erica and Jeggie behind like this.

P/S has just about turned into another sort off funny car show. It was more interesting when the cars were close to stock body and all car brands were in the mix. Know all the owners push the rule book, and the bank book, but it's gotten way out of hand. Case in hand at least the Hemi A/H cars still look like they were produced, and are very interesting to watch.

OK My bad.... I read Allen and assumed Allen Johnson... I know him and he would not have an Elite engine in his car... Maybe Prusiensky had one I cannot speak to that.. Sorry for the mistake....
