Just a question here. How many of these CJ's were put into so called racers hands/teams. I believe that Mr. Hajek owns some of them and has got some racers driving for him currently. But how many CJ's are out there in racers/teams/owners hands.

Having Don Garlits at the wheel of a Mopar Stocker is a good marketing plan. He will get media attention, regardless of his racing results, and coverage at the shows he appears at.

I personally would love to see all the new factory cars out there running in Stock Eliminator. NHRA has to step up to the plate with their opinion of horsepower ratings, regardless of what any of us think. It would only be proper that they gather alot of information that is becoming available with each race.

Hey, Jim Wahl, get Cadillac to give you one of those XLR's or CTS / CTV's.
