I don't blame the racers that are concerned about these cars. I would be too. Bruce mentioned in his first post I believe that these cars don't even have VINs. Kinda funky for a car with no VIN to be able to compete in stock, kinda like an oxymoron if you will. And I do see the importance of the factories getting involved again.
But here is a novel idea for the guys that are concerned. Band together and build one of these cars, and build it to fly everywhere you take it. Set the record with it. Then, after you feel the AHFS has caught up to it, sell it.
You would most likely get most of your money back (what would the Nat'l record holder in AA/S be worth?), you will have evened the playing field so the older cars can compete, and most of all, you will have beaten FoMoCo at their own game. At next year's SEMA show you could really ham it up in front of the Factory Ford guys
