CC/SA at Indy

Ed,

I posted something similar about the 5.9 Magnum engine vs. a 360 Volare once upon a time. At that point, the 5.9 was rated 14 HP LESS than my mom's car.

My views on the new cars are the same now as they always were: I love watching them, I'd love to have one (even a COPO!), but they have no business running in the same classes as the older combo's with the HP factors out of line.

I omitted the Drag Pak from my previous post only because I felt that a) I'd already typed too much and b) seems like the DP has been brought a bit closer in line factoring-wise compared to the CJ and COPO.
