It hasn't been that way for quite some time now.

First all of the motors are grossly under factored.
I feel that this comment is true. What about all the 1000' passes all the other guys have been making for years now? Is that bad too? How do you factor anything that isn't run wide open and then goes through the barn?

Second they never built these cars as street cars.
With all the stuff that the Feds make the factories install for safety, emissions, etc. I think that these cars are a move in the right direction. It is a crying shame to tear down a brand new car and take half of it to the dump. Especially since Stock hasn't been "stock" for a lot of years. I do wish that they had been built with production motors.
