[goinbroke2]

Just read about what you were talking about...interesting.

[tj310]

Hopefully the three stooges from top gear will show up.---Trevor

[Hemi Moose]

I can see this thing becoming a 'worldwide muscle car series' if they play their cards right...I guess this means a lot more roll bars will be needed for all those Ferrari & Bugatti's entering the series huh, lol.

...oh and by the way here's the link.

[Billy Nees]

Hey Bo, in Kepners defense, there's a lot of combos in the NHRA guide that never get built. So what, it looks good in print.

[boster]

Billy I would agree . Only thing is if the some of these combination show up they can be real fast and you cant factor that to start . It just seems like a joke to me .

Wonder why they left out the Jaguar R series or for that mater the Lotus , Twin Turbo Mini Copper , Saleens ect . Either its real racing or it's just BS

If its going to be a super car series make it that . If it going to be factory made race cars from the big 3 make it that . If its going to be factory built race cars from any manufacture make it that .

It wont be fair with factory built race cars vs high dollars street cars . The street cars will have the upper hand with traction control and dial up your own boost just to name a few items.

[Jason]

It won't take long for a few purpose built drag race Mustangs and DPs (that can never be licensed for the street) to run off all the exotic foreign jobs.

BTW there are sure a lot of American cars on the list that will never get to race in Stock or S/S 'cause they are not in the classguide. What a shame!

[boster]

Jason , dont rule out Corvette's , Vipers and Camaro's . These are very fast car's that could dominate a heads up series and have a ton of technolgy that the CJ's and DP's dont have

[RJ Sledge]

Sounds to me like its having a few issues about even making it to the "Inaugural" Kick off of Top Stock. I thought it would last for at least 6 months or so. I have a lot of respect for Bret, Jeff and anybody else who is involed in getting this thing to the table, but I bet their eyes rolled back in their heads when they got the "approved list" of vehicles that were invited.

Does ADRL even have a Tech Dept?? What a nightmare, Huh? Run Whatcha Brung!!!!

Good Luck Boys!!

Didn't all the CJs and DPs have a ton of technology unavailable to the stockers that they were meant to prey on?. You thought it was fair then! Now the bellyaching begins, looks like this will be put out to pasture before any rules or classes are even written.
