But that is different. That has nothing to do with any new rules or parts. It is all about hard work.....

Gump, I would probably argue the point in this particular case the '07 403 number is more in line than the 365 number assigned to the new COPO based stocker.

Anyone that thinks a FS car will go a mile under index from the manufacturer is SADLY MISTAKEN!!!

Someone building a competitive car, (deep under index) has spent some coin to do so!

Whether it was just bought outright or years of development... Big money is spent to get there.

With out a doubt I have respect for the team that has worked long hours and many years to go fast, but a soft combo will always be a soft combo with the way the AHSF works.

There are no FS cars even close to the 9's at the weight break that that D/SA in the 9's, period. (Well according to Nitro Joe Stats).

Red face Re: New A/SA In Minnesota

NHRA should just put everybody back to factory hp ratings and make a somewhat of a level playing field again . Give the older cars a better chance and then the new cars actually run 1/4 mile instead of 1000 feet ! Then let the system work it out.

Its never going to be fair to run a 69 camaro against a 2017 camaro technology will always be ahead if not Pro stock would be running 9.90's still!

You can take an ls motor throw a cam in it and run .70 under, take a 396 throw a cam in it
and run .70 over lol

I like new and old have had both ! Its all neat just needs to be fair for everyone somehow.

I don't matter. There is no hp penalty at Indy.
Because of this the old cars will Never catch up
Indy is where you should be able to make a NEW ad get hp hit
This Is a problem. But most of you are drunk on the Koolaid

Your right it doesn't matter at Indy . I was talking just in general . Nothing will change anyway.
