So 7 years years you spent a bunch of time,money and had a soft NHRA HP rating and ran fast? Boy don't hurt your arm patting your self on the back. Lets talk about what time and money (and low HP combos) cant buy, World championship, a race win. A couple things i don't here you talk about. There are plenty of people on here that post that have championships,race wins,records,# 1 qualifying you never here them talking about what they have done. Why? It's something called "CLASS". It's nice to think that some racers still have it.

First off, my D/S AMX was rated @ 315 HP. The same as the aforementioned 390 Mustangs at the time with their "improved" parts list. So if a Mustang 390 with larger oil pan, manifold and carb were "soft" but still weighed the same as my AMX, then I guess we were both "soft". And you also have no clue as to how much testing I've done, engines and clutches I've lost testing the limits.
Second, in one sentence you say you don't hear me talking about world championships, or race wins. Next sentence you say of those with such accomplishments, they don't mention it. Which end are you talking from?
Third, on the subject of class, you might notice I don't hide behind a screen name. Talk about classless!
