Default Re: Pro stock

When you go from being champion to struggling to qualify or get out of the 1st round, it tends to annoy you. When you have to go beg for parts, that makes it worse. So I'm not real sure it's fair to blame Erica for her attitude, although voicing it in an interview like that is a bit unprofessional.

Mopar and Ford have pretty much made it very plain that they're not real interested in trying to compete in Pro Stock. They're unwilling to spend the money and effort. It's been that way for years. People blame GM and NHRA, but the fault lies with Ford and Mopar.

The RPM rule is pretty recent, so I'm not real sure that's what hurt Mopar, as much as I respect and admire Allen Johnson.
