Default Re: Stock and the late models, a solution.

My thoughts

Computer controlled cars in their own class.

Carbuerated cars in their own class.

Combine sticks and autos within each class.

Five year limit on engine spec. changes.

Remove non factory size cranks and rods from blueprint spec.

Twenty year old cars or older get Edelbrock heads.

No throttle by wire.
If the factories can fool NHRA on the initial HP. ratings of the engines, it would be no problem to fool NHRA on the capabilities of the computer. With throttle by wire several functions are available in real time : traction control, track position, adjusting E.T. for the perfect run, delay, and a host of other capabilites. No throttle by wire, the temptation is just too inviting!
