I disagree completely, just because they have a Hemi car does NOT make the special at all. They're no better, and no more important, than any other competitor. Just because they want to spend $250K+ on a particular car doesn't make them anything other than just another Super Stock competitor.

Those cars are no more special than a Thunderbolt, a 427 Fairlane, a ZL-1 Camaro, a Max Wedge, or a Corvette with a 427 L-88 or L-72.

If you want to be "special", turn pro and join the big circus.
