Evan, thanks for your honest answer. 10.13? Yup, I believe that car is capable of that. OK, with that said, I have to admit I embellished a little. My best at H/SA weight has been 11.12 @ 118 in a mineshaft. Jeff ran 10.50 @ 127 in testing at the Cajuns. Thats only -.62 and 9mph better than my best. Jeff says he "only" ran 11.01 in H/SA class, but he forgot to say was he only ran 101 mph. I am willing to bet the farm when he was testing the day before the class race he was at legal weight, and he never denied that. At Houston,the car ran -.78 under (10.47) in SS/KA. In December that would have been -1.07 in SS/KA with a "Stocker" motor! 275 HP my ***! The point being NHRA needs to be realistic, or is there an ulterior motive here?

As I said before, I do not begrudge anyone for taking advantage of these highly underrated combos. If I had the money I might be tempted myself. What does tick me off is NHRA not even making an attempt to rate these cars fairly. Jim
