As Billy said, welcome to the new stock eliminator. You'll see more and more of these factory race cars in classes AA through V stock as more and more showroom engine combos are approved. Still waiting to see the first EcoBoost Cobra Jet !!

I has told by tech that factory stock drag pak's couldn't race has a traditional because the front suspension and steering is not the same production car.

Drag Pak's have production Challenger front suspension and the only difference in the steering is the manual rack instead of power. They will have to run the production hood and lights to match the year claimed.
