Think the heads are stock with a good valve job ? As for hard work getting you ahead there is nobody on the face of the earth that could work hard enough to make that car run that fast with a stock intake and heads and this is only my opinion but as I've said before I don't believe in Superman or Superman and a brother for that matter . Have a nice day

Isnt stock eliminator about getting through tech???? If your stuff gets through tech inspection than its legal enough to set a record. Arent we always trying to get better stuff done and get it through tech? Give these guys credit, they got it through tech and who is this other guy hating on these people who have worked their butts off on their combo to say the record doesnt stand because he didnt inspect it??? Who the heck is Fred Johnston????Thats the dumbest thing I have ever heard. Guys "Go work on your cars"!!!! Maybe you should ask these guys about doing you a set of heads.

I wouldnt recommend stock to any beginner, it lost that status along time ago. Its hard, expensive and you have to be a great cheater. You know it and so does everyone else.

I bet Hal and Joe are reading this thread and thinking ( what a bunch of fools ) and just loving it.

Someone should offer to give them a set of factory stock closed chamber heads and stock out of the box intake and then see what the camaro runs.

Almost anyone with half a brain could build and race a Stocker today that runs about .5 under the index without to much effort. Some classes it is easy to run closer to 1 second under with some good parts and nothing bogus....So when a guy who shows up and runs maybe .2 or .3 tenths under at the few races he goes to and shoots his mouth off about some real fast cars and if they are legal...consider the source. If they passed tech and pulled it apart for the record they are legal by todays standards. The same as years ago...they passed so they are good.

To stir the pot some more, think about this.

Joe never goes this fast at Nationals where there is class. At Vegas in A/SA he went 10.28 in class, McClanahan also went 10.28 running someone else. Does this mean McClanahan can go 9.60's in AA also. Isn't class supposed to be the place to show what you have. Vegas is a factored track, so getting hp is most likely not going to happen.

I noticed that he went a 10.41 in the eliminator at Woodburn, wow 8 tenths slower, I guess he is running on a two barrel for the eliminator or he put a ton of weight in the car, must have a welder with him, because we all know that much weight has to be permanent. I know Joe would not do anything against the rules.

Joe can pick his car up at will, any time any place. Not the usual 1 to 2 tenths or the usual 3 to 4 tenths the top drivers do at a race, he can pick up 8 tenths.

Were is the naysayer on here when it comes to running your car all out, and people are worried about the new CJ's sandbagging. No one should be crying now, the Chevy's can run what they want at will.

I think Joe has two engines, one for the nats and one for div, opens and records. We all know how easy it is to get through tech for records, and how tough it can be at nationals sometimes. I think if he went to Indy, and I have seen him run Indy in the past. If Joe went out and put a number down it would give more clout to the record.

With all this being said, I will give him credit for getting that 9.61 in AA through tech, he is the master.

Anybody know what his mph was?

I've been around and watched these guys race for years. To say they are hard core racers who live to race is an understatement. Congratulations...you guys deserve it!

Now if you think after Sorensen going thru tech on the west coast I'd put 1 dime up to protest someone out there you better sit back and have another glass of wine buddy and think this one thru ! There must be something in the water out west or you guys just have a strange sense of humor to think anyone would trust what goes on in DANNY"S world . Have a nice day

My car has been torn down at Indy and DIV 6&7 and the tear downs were all on the same level. Give up on your conspiracy theory. Or do you think the US Natioanls are part of the conspiracy?

I would also like to point out that ALL the tech guys I have encountered in divisions 3, 6, and 7 work their butts off. They are knowledgeable and have the utmost integrity.
It’s incredible you insult people like Dave Schaffel and crew from Division 6 and the Division 7 tech crew the way you do with your baseless accusations.
they are no ones pupets.
