Has anyone heard if Mopar will be paying for valve covers, assembly, ignition, etc. this year?

I dont know but what I DO know is they cancelled their Specific Drag Pak contingency program, after I called and said what is the payout and they said what are you talking about, I pointed them to their OWN site with the docs and guidelines...I was supposed to get a call back, instead after its been there 2 years on the site now its just GONE.

Nice........for other DP owners you might remeber the PDF "Contingency Guidelines" now its POOF.....

Nothing like promising something then after the fact killing it....im pretty irritated about that one, but not as much Im sure as people like Garlits and some others who lettered their cars according to guidelines.

At least you can race the car.....The folks who bought Camaros don't even have a class to run....

Are you trying to say the Chevy guys have no class ?

There is nobody left at Mopar that get's it - and there is no $$$$$. All the guys that understand class racing are long gone - or working elsewhere ....................:-)

Maybe thats the reason they hired Rousch to build the Drag Pak's.

My dad runnered-up in Super Gas @ the Division 5 race in Brainerd, MN in June last year.

I believe Mopar paid him for the valve covers and engine assembly. Albeit, they were the last company to pay and it took almost 3 months.

Either way, they paid. I assume it doesn't matter what class you run in, you should get paid.

Also, we didn't call or contact anybody. We assumed they WOULDN'T pay, but they did.

Thanks,

It made me a little nervous beginning 2009 about whether Mopar would pay.
Just got the last of my money from them a couple of weeks ago.
