Hey, NHRA doesn't allow 67 L-88 Corvettes in Stock but they were an RPO option. They allow Hemi Challenger convertibles but they only made 7. The last I looked you can't run a "Hurst AMX" in Stock. Itn't that the same thing? I've been one of Hawks biggest supporters and we won't even get into the whole Shelby thing. In the 60s all of the manufacturers played the game and NHRA stepped in and created a new class for them (S/S and S/SA} in Stock. Goinbroke2, what the hell was that all about? I would love to see all of these cars in Stock. I just want to see their tech specs clearly spelled out and in front of me. I just finished a Top Dragster up in my shop does that qualify me as a manufacturer? ARGH!
Billy, "argh"?That's a bit harsh for you isn't it?
