My position on the cars is still pretty much the same.

I feel the 2008 Mustang is a pretty legitimate example of what a Mustang Stocker should look like. The HP rating is it's biggest problem. Once it is corrected the car will be too heavy for stock. Nothing has changed there.

I love the Challengers, but still feel that a production style intake and throttle body would have been a better choice for Stock. I do not like the 5.9.

I would love to see GM do something.

I haven't looked hard at the specs. for the 2010 Mustang, but I think that they have changed the situation some. I had really hoped that they would have stuck to Modular Motors when they went NA.

The main reason that I have changed my mind on the idea of an FX class is how poorly everyone has acted in regards to these cars. I race Stock for fun. I surely don't want every other racer PO'ed just because of what I bring to the track.
