Most likely they are afraid of an equal heads up race and/or showing their true potential. They would rather beat up on the older over rated cars. LOL

Charley, not to pick on you, but look what good engine builders do with all these new cars. Barton going 9.60's in A at Indy and Keith Lynch and David's 5.7 hemi has had over 100 hp added to it and it was still far and away the fastest A car at Columbus. You don't think Jim Kuntz could have that 5.0 Mustang of Jimmy's running 10.0's or even 9's. There's been enough history already to see how this all plays out.

[Charley Downing]

Your right Greg and Andrew
Holbrook who has worked on prostockers has no clue what he is doing.
I forgot Parson and Myers is the only engine bulid that can make HP.

Looking forword to racing you next year with our new 2013 CJ 302ci in D/SA and this one has the Boss intake.

You guys really think the red car Jimmy drove last week can't run low 10's has it sets?

Oh, they know it can Charley, I think that is there point. When the wrenches get turned on this combo it will out run most cars from A to D!!

Boy I'm glad I quit this !

Pro Stock is not same! How many NHRA races did he win? IHRA is a lot easier than the 500 CID. Don't knock the old line Engine Builder's they paid their dues! Unlike Charile Boob!

Shouldn't you be called Bowtie Ralph? When was the last time you had a car capable of being a number one qualifier? I don't think Charlie was saying that Parson and Myers are bad engine builders but there are others out there that are good also. At least Chartlie is out there racing and putting his money where his mouth is.

Spoken like a ture no name key board racer ralph.
I never said Parson and Myers were not one of the best in the game. Greg and Andrew just were beating up on my eng builder.

Your right ralph have been racing in Stock for over 10 years and going to racers for over 20 but I still have not paid my dues. But yet I never see your name on the sheets?

Chuck D still racing on line and on the track.

I was most certainly not beating up on your engine builder, it just seems like many of the engines he builds for the new cars are not built to their full potential because they don't need to be to go fast. Look at Chris' own car, he only went .86 under in the class final Indy, and I'm sure that's not because the potential to go fast isn't there. It's barely faster than he went in stock last year. What I am saying is that if you take one of these new motors and built it like the really fast guys' motors in stock or super stock (which lots of different engine builders, including Holbrook, can do), they will be faster than they are currently running.

OK, Ralph,I would think most IHRA Pro Stock racers would dispute your comment about IHRA being a lot easier, I think Holbrook won 5 races and the IHRA Pro Stock championship in 1999, what have you done???

Jerry, they might dispute it until they come over and try to compete using the same engine builder. How many have been able to pull it off?
