Question Re: Once again a bogus combination

There are some very unhappy racers, but also quality cars/drivers who are giving it there all. One example is Shaul, who isn't afraid to drag that bad Wedge across the country and race no matter who shows up. He and many others, like Kenny, are going out to race. I'm sure you've talked to a lot of racers, but so have I, and I can find plenty of positive opinions as well the negative ones.

If Teuton put a stick in the Challenger and beat me by two tenths I wouldn't be happy, but I wouldn't be screaming on the Internet. Guys have had me by that amount or more in the past and I found a way to improve my car.

You believe that Stock will be 50 percent full of these cars and that is just not going to be the reality. You may feel that even one is too many, but I doubt that those who love racing and have a big investment in racing will quit because a few cars are faster no matter what the cause.

As for the AHFS, it will never be 100-percent effective until every run counts and the altitude tracks have a real adjustment with runs there counting, too.
Evan, I just have to ask, if Jeff put a stick in his Challenger and beat you by .75 would you feel the same? Do you think you could find a way to "improve" your car that much, without dropping a 427 in that is? Jim
