Spy shots - Don Garlits Challenger

Jeff Lee · 03-24-2009, 11:43 AM

The attributes of a Max-Wdge car is not the issue. The issue is that it was a factory built, purpose built race car that was eligible for Stock Eliminator. That would be an argument FOR the CJ500 '08 Mustang in the same class.
Then I posted about the 1968 only 440 "M" code Dart. Same story, fully streetable (although less built than the MW cars) but NHRA mandated as Superstock only.
Typically, NHRA has made all the purpose built factory drag-pack style cars SS only but as you can see, there are some inconsistancies over the years.
It is what it is...
