SS/AH Factor Change
Looks like the auto trans cars run 30 lbs lighter, and the 4 speed add 12 lbs. HP now the same in stick and automatic. Interesting.

Re: SS/AH Factor Change
Does anybody on here think that we'll ever see a 7.99 SS/AH or are we pretty much tapped out on finding power in these Hemi's (without more rule changes)?

Re: SS/AH Factor Change
Exactly, Charlie. I have a hard time believing someone ran a number like that and no one knows. Plus, there are only a handful (that I know of) that have that kind of power anyways, and they are all hibernating!
Plus, I have never understood the whole cat and mouse thing. If I had a car that was a rocketship I would make sure everyone knew. And I would try my best to have my A-game at the shootouts, because that's the only way I'd beat Charlie. Got to beat the best to be the best, and why hide it....... |

Re: SS/AH Factor Change
If somebody wants to plan a Ultimate Hemi Shootout and really find out who has the HP they would be limited to certain tracks at certain times of the year to get the air they need and thats a crapshoot. Could do a east / west series but the money ( like cw says ) has to be appropriate but you can't guarentee mother nature. In the end only the engine builders Know for sure.
