Bo, you are exactly right! Way to much stuff has been allowed in the past years that should have been a DQ instead of a rule change. However, one of the things that has always held my interest was the fans and other competitors that were amazed that S/SS cars were as quick as they were given the limitations. ie: flat tops or dished pistons, small cams, q-jets/small holleys/afb carbs etc. I can take an old style motor, port the heads, use 1000 cfm air flow, big manifolds, blowers etc. and get the same or better performance as the new cars. Not to mention computer control all of this in milliseconds. Thats no great accomplishment. Especially if my competition is "old school" as many have mentioned. That is exactly why I am thrilled to have Brett and others that are putting the time in to have a "Supercar Series".
These cars will be a great draw running against themselves and should be a boost to the manufacurers and help to sell their product and create public awareness that the car companies are again offering performance.

And you are correct again that there are quite a few other "old" combos out there that have had low hp ratings that have been protected by racers and sanctioning bodies. That needs to be addressed also. And ahfs is not the way to do it as it allows competitors to falsify a combo's true performance potential.

Oh, and I got used to the technology a long time ago. Some really good for our sport and some really bad.
