Default Re: How does a 428W crate motor run regular SS?

I personally agree that the ratings on these cars are BS, NHRA should be able to control this. That has not happened. It shows what happens when you let someone else run your organization. The auto companies left us for many years and now they have returned. They have proven they can build a comparable car to the old muscle cars. They didn't need to lie about it.

I feel the big issue of the streetability lies in our "sue" happy society. They cannot afford to put one of these rockets onto the streets today or they will be in court in 24 hours for something. They do not want to hear the environmentalists start crawling down their throats either.

They have given us a taste of the old, I just wish it was on the up and up.
