Default Re: Question on Hoods

Back a long time ago, before NHRA was run by Investment Bankers and was still a Drag Racing Sanctioning body they cared about the validity of the cars that raced in Stock and Super Stock.....

One year at the WinterNationionals, about 35 years ago, NHRA decided to fix all that was wrong with Stock & Super Stock by requiring the correct hoods on 67, 68 & 69 Camaros......

There was a mad dash during tech back to their trailers (open trailers), to swap out hoods.......

Almost all of the Camaros at that race had mismatched hoods but the cars had the correct hoods according to the NHRA.....

It looks like now Stock & Super Stock has turned into "Run what you brung" or little cheaters and big cheaters.....

They just keep chipping away at it.....
