Should the MOPAR V10 DragPak get a 3speed?

[RJ Sledge]

First off I ain't picking on anybody, just had some thoughts.

I was told once by Wesley Roberson, that NHRA did not make you choose the particular car that you race. Each individual can choose what ever car they want and then compete with it. What he did tell me was, I had to adhere to the rules that were established by NHRA concerning my car choice.

I don't understand how a person can pick a particular car and when he finds himself at a performance disadvantage, wants NHRA to bail them out over a poor choice of vehicles and allow something that never came with the car.

Maybe we can all get Superchargers to level up the playing field??

Nothing should surprise us anymore. Integrity.....whats that??

I agree. Ditto HP reductions from the factory hp ratings when someone can't make one run fast enough. I feel like all HP reductions from factory HP ratings are bogus. If they aren't capable of making it fast enough, it's either their lack of capability, they are trying to pull something (probably the most common thing) or they should have been smart enough to have picked another combo. Most all HP reduction combos end up extremely fast. Guys that got 30 or 40 HP reductions from their factory HP ratings probably can't stop smiling. LOL

I'm not sure but I believe y'all must be referring to me.... Well here I go, first I'm not asking anyone to bail me out! We are just looking for the advantages that everyone else has. I mean really?? Do you think we need to be "bailed out"? If I'm not mistaken we have the fastest A/S, F/SA, and CC/SA, so I really hope that wasnt directed at the Teuton camp. If it was well I guess everyone will just have to wait till Indy to see what this is all about!

[Greg Hill]

Who cares?

[Al Loyrat]

Yes they should get a 3 speed. 3 on the tree with a syncro first gear!

[treessavoy]

I think they should have 5 speed Lenco's

It's all a joke anymore anyway. What Ford or Chrysler ever came with a Powerglide? What Chrysler or Camaro ever came with a 9" rear end?

Mr. Durham, I believe that we agree, just in different wording. And I should have been clearer as to not assuming that you guys have not worked on your car.

Just was stating that your car is fast and so is 000. 000 is claimed to have not had the heads off.

Congrats on running that well this weekend. Hope we get to meet you guys somewhere along the way.
