Now take your Ford hat off long enough to think about these questions. What is so terribly wrong with running these cars in a FX class or a Computerized injected class? Why does Brian Wolfe insist on running these cars in Stock when he knows he has beat the pants off the nhra tech department with a bogus Horespower number of 425? nhra will put these cars in any class he wants. Why does Mr. Wolfe insist on runing his over powered cars against 40 year old technology?
I don't know that much about Comp racing but, I believe nhra does not allow supercharged cars to run against normally aspirated cars in Comp. How fair is it to run these supercharged cars in Stock when they could be enjoying a great season in FX of Computerized Injected?

Bruce,
I guess we will respectfully agree to disagree, I think NHRA's flawed AHFS will take care of the problem sooner or later. Now as for the supercharged Comp cars, Bo Butner ran a supercharged big block in his combo that Jeff Taylor built, a pro charger and it was stout! He hit the index numerous times, I was at the race where he ran to fast as he car wasn't certified to the et he was capable of. Then you have Hurley who ran twin turbos, Steve Matusek, John Gallina in SS with his twin turbo Regal. There are plenty of boosted combos out there.
