I have no issue with people purchasing new cars and working on a new combo, after all we do need new cars coming into the class. However if NHRA allows the factory built cars to run in stock and take up qualifying spots then they should never be allowed to be AHFS exempt. So tell me why is it fair to let the new cars run all out with no penalty for HP. If we all run in STOCK then we should ALL follow the SAME RULES!
THIS hits the nail right on the head! Since when are different classes within Stock allowed different rules? Now I guess that the big three are throwing money at the sanctioning body, huh?

No doubt, new cars NEED to be involved but at a level playing field.
