Re: "Kepner went Kaboom"
 

Just read about what you were talking about...interesting.

Re: "Kepner went Kaboom"
 

Hopefully the three stooges :D:o:) from top gear will show up.---Trevor

Re: "Kepner went Kaboom"
 

I can see this thing becoming a 'worldwide muscle car series' if they play their cards right...I guess this means a lot more roll bars will be needed for all those Ferrari & Bugatti's entering the series huh, lol. ;)

...oh and by the way here's the link.

Re: "Kepner went Kaboom"
 

Hey Bo, in Kepners defense, there's a lot of combos in the NHRA guide that never get built. So what, it looks good in print.

Re: "Kepner went Kaboom"
 

Billy I would agree . Only thing is if the some of these combination show up they can be real fast and you cant factor that to start . It just seems like a joke to me .

Wonder why they left out the Jaguar R series or for that mater the Lotus , Twin Turbo Mini Copper , Saleens ect . Either its real racing or it's just BS

If its going to be a super car series make it that . If it going to be factory made race cars from the big 3 make it that . If its going to be factory built race cars from any manufacture make it that .

It wont be fair with factory built race cars vs high dollars street cars . The street cars will have the upper hand with traction control and dial up your own boost just to name a few items.

Re: "Kepner went Kaboom"
 

The amazing thing is comparing these HP numbers with the same cars 15 years ago. Technology is has made these cars amazingly fast.

Re: "Kepner went Kaboom"
 

I promise I won't interfere with your dialogue on the subject but I feel the need to point out the list whch appeared in the January 24 press release, (the same which is posted in this thread), represents only some of the many combinations which COULD be used. It is not a list of the only eligible vehicles. It's merely a sample of the production cars available which offer engines of more than four hundred factory-rated horsepower.

As stated in the release, there are many more combinations out there than those listed.

Carry on.


Oh, by the way...

Re: "Kepner went Kaboom"
 

Bret , when will the list be complete ? I think you will get a lot of guys wanting to race the super cars . If I show up with a GT40 at the first race would it be allowed to race . What about the Hennesy line of super cars and Callaway super car ? There are a ton of cars in Dupont Regestry that are super cars that are not on the list . Thank you for your thoughts and at least trying to get some heads up racing going.

Re: "Kepner went Kaboom"
 

Ummm...Ford hasn't made a GT 40 in FORTY THREE YEARS.

If you meant a GT, they haven't made one of those in SIX years.
