This by far the biggest joke That has ever happend in NHRA. The people that are making these rules have no clue what they are doing to the futher of stock and super stock! How many young people are entering these classes? NONE !!! I'm with them time for two 60mm turbos and some mini tubes f this s@#$!!!!

I know a lot of you guys don't like "hood scoop" cars but this really hurts those of us on a tight budget. The comp...uhhh I mean new style modified cars w/ the $50,000 engines have already dropped some of the indexs and now another .30 is going to finish off some of us who don't have the funding to keep up w/ these guys. Bristol would now be out of the question for me unless that's an altitude adjusted track (not sure). Could save me some money, but regardless if I race any NHRA I will be at the very bottom of the sheet. The question is...will this change bring in more cars than it will run off? It appears to me that they need more cars as they are now opening up nationals to more classes so this decision doesn't make good financial sense. Just my .02

Hmmmmm a Challnger Drag Pak with a completed motor, and a HOOD scoop, was 35 out the door, half of that is engine cost, damm near.
Takes another 15 to make it ready, but thats 50 in the whole car. Its amazing (other than our cage and suspension work we paid to have done, were doing it all ourselves..... Still cheaper than an SCJ by a bunch. Quote:

Stocker.....
Id like a superstocker one, but I really want a nice FED for later next year, when I get one or a vintage flopper Ill be happy. After seeing the Super Stock Challenger Mike up at MPR did, up close and personal, now all I need is a body...(and Ive got a line on one) as Mike suggested its kinda dumb *** to cut on one of the real DP Challenger so much. Im not too much of a collector, but in this case weve come to agree (my dads initial reaction was well if we get bored in Stock well have Mike make it a SuperStocker) But since its his game, Im just in charge of building the car, driving it, finding a good driver for Nationals, getting sponsors, handling the reciepts, making the decisions on the components, rule compliance, and all the rest.....wait a minute....Dad get up off your butt ![]() Cheers Chris |
