Z-11 CHEVY vs NEW FORD CJ

The third paragraph of SECTION 8A - STOCK CARS on page 102 of the 2009 NHRA rulebook reads as follows:

<"OEM may apply for inclusion of any special production runs into the Official NHRA Stock Car Classification Guide. Special runs must include a minimum of 50 units of an already accepted body style, need not be showroom available. Applications evaluated on an individual basis. Acceptance will not imply precedent.">

This is not a new rule. It has been in the NHRA rulebook since 1997. Looks like Ford "applied for inclusion" and was granted acceptance. What OEM will be the next to step up and build a "special production run"?
