Drag Pak/Cobra Jet FX classes

Indy is all fine and dandy BUT Danny & Bruce have been around too long to not know what would happen!! They should have seen last year when the first CJ were too fast for the roll cages. Too many hidden interest out there. It will be hard to get all the horses back in the barn know that they are free just like all the SS chassis mods that don't meet the specs, how about FWD Sturts on rear wheel drive cars but the Old F-cars can't do it.
Time to clean house in Glendora in tech department. Glen Gray should fix this!

Everything you said is true, but it is what it is. I wish I had the ability to substantiate my information, but it was enough for me to put a halt to my plans of selling my car.

The horse is already out of the barn for the Drag Paks and Cobra Jets, but Glendora can build a new barn right around them with the FX classification. This would take it from a win/lose situation to everyone shares a bit of a win.

That doesn't correct some of the other items you have addressed. It does at least address one of the most inane decisions that they have made lately.

One thing that should be done is do new corrections on engines either the old engines should be corrected to the Dyno Correction SAE J1349 which is to 29.234 Baro & 77 degrees. The old Correction SAE J607 is to 29.92 & 60 degrees. This would reduce the old engines by 4%. Or you could just add 4 % to the new engines

Look at this web site on dyno corrections.

Need to get all engines rated at the same weather correction.
