Tony, an LT1 at 279 hp is far more honest than a 360 DP rated at 275! At the same weight those DP motors can run 9.0's or faster! NO LT1 is coming close to that!

That’s the exact point. Plenty of people are sandbagging a little to save for a heads up in the heat. That’s not the problem. The people who have run their new cars hard and gotten it HP are looked at with a lot more respect than the 50% throttle sandbagger. Why do they need to game the system that hard? When you this and claim you never took the valve covers off, it’s a slap in the face to everyone else in the community, just like the welfare Benz driver. Granted, NHRA is to blame, but why didn’t Chevy submit absolutely ridiculous #’s? Sure they are bogus, but not nearly as bad as Ford and Chrysler. I have no problem with the new cars and fully expect to get my Azz handed to me by one in heads up. I'm just trying to answer Joseph's question. I think if he runs it at 85-90% throttle, people won't have bad things to say about his car anymore. He'll quit slapping people in the face with his racing style and the community will embrace the new cars.

Btw, I would never have this conversation with Lil' Joe. He along with every other Teuton I've conversed with are very respectable intelligent men who would never start calling people names when they don't agree with them. Only Joseph does this and should not represent any other Teuton. If you want to read exactly how it went down, here you go...
