Crate Engines in NHRA?

Not for nothing, for all the arguing going on here, this could be Ed Fernandez's long lost brother.

Thanks bro...ya thats my dad. He lost his battle to cancer in 2008. I actually built this car for him to race. And now that hes gone I race it for him. He wanted it to be a 396/375hp combo but we were on a time frame to build the car because cancer was quickly killing him. He was able to race a week before he died.

Dont you feel special for posting that pic

Actually he seems to have been much better looking than me.There's a small resembalence though.I'm sorry for your loss.He did seem to have a good grasp of Stock,wanting to build a 396/375 combo.Too bad it didn't transfer down to you.Nice to hear that he did get to race the car.

2) you've got a guy that built a car to the rules that he wanted to build, and has fun with it. All this NHRA vs IHRA or this car vs that car stuff is irrelevant.

Michael,read their reasoning.They want NHRA to bend to their wishes.
