I don't know what Tom Compton is doing these days but I would rather have Peter Clifford's job.

If you have not seen this article it is a good read. It talks about some of the issues raised here and also reveals why the Hemis don't run well under the new rules.

I have always been a fan of E.E.,s and root for her..but was a little disappointed at the kick in the crotch she delivered to Mopar on T.V. "it's nice to drive a car that goes somewhere when you let the clutch out" I'm sure nobody was more frustrated with not being competitive than Mopar....maybe just say.."we appreciate all of the hard work and the funds they provided, but we feel like the move to Chevrolet is in our best interest " and just leave it there. You don't want to burn bridges because a stroke of the pen in Glendora could have Dodges showing tail lights to Chevys.

I've never been a fan of EE and thought we were seeing her real self. The big kick in the crotch was when Mopar pulled their support of Alan Johnson and gave it to EE and Jeggy.
Just my $.02.

Where's Westcott in all of this?

She was showing her real self. Not a fan either.
I was around her when she ran SC and SG.
That was her real self then, and no I did not lose to her either so it is not being bitter.

It would take more than "a stroke of a pen by NHRA" to make a set of MOPAR cylinder head castings that could be made to flow enough air to make enough hp to be competitive. MOPAR needs a "kick in the crotch" for not being able to make a decent set cylinder head castings available to their racers. And, E.E., as you call her, is a very nice young lady. In her position, you would be glad to be back to where you had a chance to win a race too.

I read the hot rod article,and the comments from A.J. and Chris Mcgaha saying the Hemi needed the RPM to make HP. So maybe a pen stroke that throws out the rev limiter makes them competitive? As far as EE I would love to meet her. She's apparently a good friend of A.J.,s and that's good enough for me. I just remember her comments last season when she said several times "we are thrilled to be part of the Mopar team and we are committed to keep working to make this car competitive "

RPMs won't do it if you can't get enough air flow. Cylinder head friends of mine, from two different shops (not connected to Elite) told me the same thing about those heads.
If AJ can't make one run, I don't really see anybody else doing it.
