Ford seems to be more into NMCA NMRA programs. Dominated by Fords
By bashing Ford on classracer is gonna do what?Jim?
In the beginning Ford Dominated NHRA you no why?
Because the hp ratings were BOGUS. It was easier But now HP ratings have caught up
Anyone running these cars because of cost are complaining Really?
Factory Shoot Out is what you wanted you got it
Now work harder spend more $$$$ or get a softer combo like you guys had.
Just like I do with my old stocker. It racing nothing Cheap nothing Easy to go fast
Chevrolet All The Way. My preference

I think its is more of the lack of support than working hard. Talking to the cobra jet owners in Charlotte, they told me there is no support for factory showdown cars like the copo's and drag paks are getting from their reps. None of them had any issues with NHRA and the hp ratings, they just want to see ford performance show support like they did in the past for class that was really started by ford.. From what I heard this guy mike has only been to 2 races this season, and at the first race he was balled out by 3 top ford teams for the lack of support.
