Crew Chief: This has been done already with a few AH cars and they were never campaigned a whole lot after the conversion. I feel this is because the majority of the people that enter SS/AH are doing it for the heads up eliminator style racing. SS/AH is an Elite class. Look at the number of AH cars that race in the eliminator at Indy. The majority pack up on Friday night after class.

SS/AH IS a very competitive combination.You may not qualify 1.00 under based on a beat up index, but in the eliminator its a whole different ball game. Little Joe runner upped at last years 'Gators and continually does well with his AH team. He races in the eliminator and a little differently than the rest of the Hemi cars, but this is somewhat the same way I plan on campaigning my AH car.

Wendell: That was my point in the Thanksgiving Hemi Head Thread. If we could have legalized everyones heads and had a valve cover template, problem $olved. I had hoped to nip it in the bud before it came to this. Too late now

I also found it very ironic that David would be bad mouthing this rule. They should have been laughing all the way to the bank. The only thing this tells me is the Bartons have a real Love for Super Stock and put the integrity of the class before the wallet!

If the rule Jeff talks about comes to fruition in a few weeks, hopefully it will help the class and not hurt it anymore. Nothing like the off season to get your stuff ready.
The Hemi Head rule is not changing, the chips are flying and the season is underway. Time to stop bs'ing and get to work...
