The new cars are 100hp short to begin with. Does this mean it will take the NHRA 25 years to get them in line????

You were correct then and you are correct now. Plus you have to note that the vast majority of the time for the horsepower adjustments were done in the FI classes (which is still active in IHRA).
25 years sounds about right, but it is ongoing as long as they keep making up new crate motors at Ford, Chrysler, and/or GM. Come on, 12.7 to 1 compression ratio for the 5.7 Drag Pak! What computer controls are in existence that can run that car on the street with pump gas?
What am I thinking. I forgot about diesel.
