Thumbs down Re: New '09 Chrysler' specs AA/S thru G/S

This whole deal with the Challengers and the new Mustangs is a joke. Why would NHRA not factor these cars appropriately? Why would they allow purpose built race cars in stock? Always before to run stock the car had to be available to the public and be streetable. I understand some of these older cars like the L88 corvette or Max wedge cars were rare but they still could be bought from a dealer and liscensed for the street. These cars if anyone has the money to build them will make our older cars obsolete. It's a slap in the face to all of us who have worked our asses off and spent tons of money developing our combination only to see them made irrelevant by people who are destroying our sport as we know it. Why don't Chrysler and Ford have to race cars that are available to the public and are streetable? Who actually benefits from allowing these bogus cars in stock? I always heard when investigating something like this that you need to follow the money. Where is the money? If anyone thinks this is going to increase participation in stock they are a fool.
