No... But a Challenger Drag Pak vs a new Cobra Jet Mustang would be very cool. Current Factory cars fighting it out like the old days. To bad Pontiac is going gone/away a GTO would be cool in the mix.

I'd also like to see :

1. Fully super stock prepared 2010 CJ Mustang heads up against the fastest SS/AH(Barton/Daniels or Wescotts). Maybe there's finally going to be something new at the top??? New Mustangs already pushing 152 mph, how long did it take the hemi's to get to that level?

2.Oakes with Armstrong power vs the Big Bad Red Roush Mustang heads up in SS/DA or SS/CA. My moneys on the stang even tough I'd like to see Brian win.

3. Any new camaro drag pack option(come on GM)

4.Mopar figures a way to allow a 392 hemi with a supercharger like the Cobra Jets. Then it will really get fun...

These threads are more fun than the National Inquirer to read..thanks for all the fun over my morning coffee.

Having fun,
Alex

Tech man, those 'multimillion darts & cudas' were devalued severly last year. Humbling is what you call it. But you know, an old Barton motor and a good car is an excellent bracket car. We did that last year. Anybody need any old SS/AH motors?

Mopar will soon release an all aluminum block probably capable of over 1000 hp in 426 and 440 based on the current 6.1 Hemi design. Same heads as the current DP cars, big one barrel throttle body, maybe something for the blown crowd also. Crate motors & parts. But you know how those 'crate motors' move around from car to car.

Ah, Hudsons! You now have the first "Crate Motor Stocker". Ike Smith built 4 Hudson Jets (small compact car 2800#), and convinced "Farmer" it was and option, only to find that they set the firewall back 4 inches to get a 308 cu in, dual carbed motor and Hydramatic in to J/ Stock. This caused my Falcon to be uncompetitive for over two years. So you see there is precedence for whats going down. A couple of "names" had them and did real well with them, also. Ah, history.

P.S. I forgot to add this was about 1963/1964 or so.
