I feel you guys might be correct about how to factor a BIG car small car deal being unreasonable. Even worse some underfactored motors might move up and Hit the over factored Vettes and even the Thunderbolts.
Question about SS cars? Have any regular SS cars been built in the past few years? any with the GT technology of low stance, Coil overs and LIGHT wt? I feel the Cuda AH stuff is advanced beyond any current SS cars running. GT is closer. If the GT rules were used you are right the big body would still be handicapped. Good points. With the AHFS factoring the GT cars differently than the SS or other body styles would it help? Look at the 71 vette 454, it is factored 475hp but the same motor in a GT is 440 with AL or 430 with steel heads I believe. Tough to correct this one in reverse..
