Joseph, I guess NHRA should change the rear end section in the rule book for Drag Pack cars changed over to regular stock.

Short Version: This car was vetted to death two years ago in Indy. Including parking a driver next to it. No issues whatsoever. Been running it since. Closed. Now I'm going watch it win Stock Eliminator in Houston I Hope. Any more info needed, try NHRA.

Cool Re: Is this a mistake?

Let's be proactive and include the new Copo Camaros, and Ford Cobra Jets, that will be converted to traditional stockers in the near future!.. Y'all gotta understand this isn't a dead horse, it's a newborne colt, that is about to be let outta of the barn.
I'll bet that Yo Ken and John Shaul haven't forgot nearly / getting thrown out for having the wrong 9" Ford rear end in his Ford and The wrong Mopar Rear end in his Mopar. Just saying...........

Because it's not legal to use an Alum center section in the old cars. That's reserved for the new cars with Ford Rear Ends, or the New Chrysler 8 and 4 quarter Rear Ends.

Just wondering if they get to run an Aluminum Center Section like the FS cars do?
There was an issue about the Aluminum Center Section being run in the "Traditional" Ford Stockers that had a Ford part number on it and was clearly available from Ford Parts Departments. It had a Strange tag on it.

Was explained to me by Bruce that only the 2008 FS cars got to do that (CJ's COPO's Pak's) and that was the reason "Traditional" Ford Stockers were not allowed the Ford Aluminum center section. I still have the Ford Racing parts catalog with it listed.

Like I said....just wondering?
