What percentage of heads-up races do you think the new DPs will win? As long as they don't break, red light or have to run a new Mustang, I bet they will win at least 95% of their heads-up races.

Toby given that criteria with a word change or so I'll bet you could describe 50% of the cars in stock or superstock.
Sort of like if nobody was quicker than you, you would always be number 1 qualifier.

OK, how about this: I bet the DPs will win at least 90% of their heads-up races and the new Mustangs will win at least 95% of their heads-up races.

Anybody want any of that action?

i would agree with that statement

I think it might be more like 95% for the DPs if it wasnt for us.

But some day, we may actually get to an elimination run...So far our best is to qualify, and then break. But if we get there, then your numbers might not be so safe....

Dave that is well said. Thanks to NHRA you never had a chance, and you have a Great Car. What car can beat one of these new DP or CJ? Defrank, Hawk, Shaul, Corda, Wilkes, West, Wann, Cooter, Boudreau, Boburka, Sorensen, Latino, Pendarvis, Russo, Koppein, Barton??? By the time they get them factored to where they need to be, I'll be dead! And I'm only 39 and holding!

Larry you have summed it up just about perfectly. For some reason the NHRA has let these cars in with ridiculous factors and we WILL BE DEAD by the time they get things corrected.

I keep hearing that but well the 6.1 is up for review, it has already had HP added, it can only run in A and AA now.

The 08 CJ Can only run AA now.

We plan on running the 5.7 to its natural home and I believe that to be B, just an uneducated guess. But were not running 1000 footers, or planning on pulling it in anyway.

I know 2 others out there, Doug who has been mentioned and Irv Johns, well I really dont see either one of them laying down.

Im not being a prick Im being serious when I ask this, what timeframe would be acceptable to see the HP rated up and to what ?

Im curious its a question Ive never asked, I hear that the HP is unfair, etc. but noone I have seen gave and answer to what they think it should be.
