GUMP,
All I was saying is, if an idiot like me can bolt on 150 horsepower in his backyard under a shade tree, so-to-speak, for a first time out run, with no experience, what must a factory effort be able to accomplish, and there are no RULES to deal with it.

Pulley sizes that determine boost, and therefore horsepower, need to be addressed SOMEWHERE, don't you think? They're not, as far as I can see.... There appears to be NOTHING in the 2009 rulebook about this.

NHRA needs to get with it; it ain't 1955 any more... That was my point.
