I would make everything legal. Everything. Guys could race fuel funny cars in Stock. No tech at all. Pit wherever you want. An award for the best wheel lock-up smoke at the finish line. Crossing the centerline actually earns championship points. Red-lights earn one "do-over". Blowers on cars that didn't come with a blower. Any car produced anywhere in the world legal for stock (e.g. Lada, Alfa-Romeo, Trabant, Saab, FIAT). Any engine in any chassis, including Briggs & Stratton. Any fuel allowed, including diesel and JP-7. Competitors can enter up to 5 cars at a single event. Burnouts across the starting line. Passengers/pets allowed. Fiberglass/carbon fiber anywhere. Hood scoops allowed. And then, of course, rationalize all of this with lower cost, better safety, more fan interest, and "it's going to happen over time, anyway, so let's just do it now".

The slippery slope just became the 100 meter ski jump!

Billy billy billy ... wth ? You got a pile of poorly factored cars you wanna make playa’s ?? 20% really 20% ... let’s see that’s about what the ffford got off seen any of them in the top 10 qualifier since then ??? Jim hale gets 43off a 383 /315 down to 272 and is #1 and admits it makes well over 500 on dyno ... and that’s only 15% > how about you pick a combo at whatever it is rated and race it if it’s a slug you picked like **** >>> it’s not Bernie sanders socialist stock everyone isn’t guaranteed to run a second under 🤔🤔🤔

Maybe 5 hp off after two years of racing and $5000 receipts during that time 😳😳

Captain 😎
