The drivers voted earlier this year and they don't want fuel injection. A whole lot of money and in the end you end up in the same place. The engine won't make anymore power with fuel injection per WJ. He knows a little bit about a pro stock engine. LOL

Thumbs up Re: Erica & Greg?

Pro Stock and Comp are the only classes I will watch anymore. (other than S/SS of course). I really would like to see bodies that are closer to stock however. It's getting harder to tell what's what. Comp amazes me (doesn't take much) and probably the most innovative class there is. I'm good friends with the Treadwell's and Glenn is a genius in my book. Jim

Heck , Jim, I have to look for a name on the new cars on the street anyway. Run them
through a wind tunnel to save fuel and they all end up shaped pretty much alike. I watch SS, Comp and Pro Stock. Have no interest in any of the track oilers, pro mod included. Can't believe they did away with Pro Stock trucks, and kept the bikes. I would have just as soon they moved them to cars. Don't personally care for trucks unless I need to haul something too big to fit in the trunk of a car. Small block Pro Stock cars ( like in Austrailia) would be neat IMHO. Just my thoughts. Please don't shoot me. I'm old.

Homogonized Jelly Beans. I like that. One thing this forum does not lack is imaginative descriptive words. Back on point, Erica looks better than Greg, probably smells better too, so what we fightin about. Yeah the cars look alike. We actually have a Jason Line pro stock that is about 5 years old, and now a T/S. Trick stuff. I think Lil Joe might sell it too as a roller. Any interest. We also got a 1200 hp motor from Jeggie from years back in P/S. Probably for sale. Was used to break in a comp car, which now has a Mopar P/S motor. It's fresh. I'm lost on the wrong forum, but I'm lost anyway.

Yes Jim, Comp is pretty cool with its diversity and competitiveness.

I like the super modified cars. They start with an actual body like a cobalt etc and build the car.

Talking Re: Erica & Greg?

I have always belived that super modified is the REAL pro stock because of the STOCK bodies...now with that said, lets bring back F/M w/ steal bodies 8.5 lbs per cubic inch, 4150 carbs, and 5 speeds, and a tire no bigger than 14.32. And if you get out run shut-up, go home, and find some more power................see you at the track

Well they did what they wanted to do...What a great publicity stunt...Just like NASCAR's "Have at it boys" but, this is ladies and boy's....My three cents worth...
