Sorry I thought it was a great idea at first but then realized that’s what pro stock used to be before a loss of parity and so now the all Camaro show that it turned into. I would’ve loved to of seen them somehow fix pro stock invest more into that instead of creating several more classes that just may not work.
The FX cars must be the same dimensions as the stock production cars. Same engine rules apply for FX as FSS, larger rear tire and 5 spd. The FSS cars could go below 7.50 with out the constant rule adjustments and NHRA does not want any passes in the 7.5s with these cars. The FSS are 1000 lbs heavier with half the rear tire and make more power than the prostocks do. The FX cars should be much safer to run than the FSS and take away some of the limitations of the small tire and chassis of the FSS.
