[QUOTE=Chris Barnes;526864]This topic really torques my vent hole! I know this idea comes up over and over and over again but why not use the new factory race cars for a new improved Pro Stock???? It just seems like such a great idea I can't understand why it isn't even considered by the NHRA. Why do they stick them in S/SS with more letters--is it just to make an already incomprehensible class even more confusing? They get rid of the separate FI classes in the name of simplifying, they take .3 off our indexes to help the little guy (wtf?) now I have to compete against cars that come with their own factory support team! Don't get me wrong, I love the renewed factory interest and I have nothing against rich people racing but why not let these guys show off on the big stage? And don't even get me started on the over-Camaro of the class....

My Stocker is 53 years old!

Great Post Chris!! Bingo we have a winner... They had the perfect format already and did not take advantage of it. Look at how many good PS racers are setting out... Asking us to embrace this BS is like embracing Hilary! That Sh!t ain't gonna happen! Can't blame the economy for everything...
