My last post almost looks like I am back tracking. I still think the FX makes the most sense and I would enjoy watching it. I was just pointing out some reasons as to why it may not have happened already.

I came back and posted that it looked like I was waffling, but I still support the FX. It was just reasons why I didn't think it has happened yet.

Got your e-mail and you realize that you are motivating me to really start leaning on things. ;)

It sure doesn't look like it would be any fun tearing this engine down.

From the very beginning........... before the new cars even hit the track, Mike Pustelney worked like crazy and tried to get the FX classes done.... If you don't know who he is, I won't bother to try to educate you. But he had the earliest contact with everyone on this, and can certainly confirm that.

Chris (Drooze) and I, as well as most other Drag Pak owners at the time were also fully in favor and when communicating with NHRA and Mopar, let it be known. We weren't just wiling to accept it... We really, really wanted it to happen.

In other words, the people with the best contacts on the new cars and programs did think it would fair to beat up on the old cars, nor that beating up the old cars would be good for Stock.

But the NHRA thought it was perfect;y fair for the blown Fords, and the obviously quick Challenger Drag Paks to run in Stock.

And now after nearly three years of online whining, the NHRA still isn't doing anything about it.

You can all continue to complain, bitch and whine. if it makes you feel good, or you think it gives you entrance, honor and some grand position in the Great Hall of Fairness for All!

But if it hasn't happened yet, do you honestly think that continuing your constant crying here will change it?
