Uh...what? We are still talking about DRAG racing right?

Just kidding...interesting idea but Jeff Kempton has some pretty good points.

You most remember that for Generation X&Y the Honda Civic is what the 55 56 57 Chevrolet Belair 67 68 69 Camaro's was to our Generations. We better make room for them. I do remember that class racing wasn't always populated by the one with the biggest bank account. We respected the low buck to no buck engineering that made this sport great, remember that probably most car we're flat towed to the track for many years, WHY: because most weren't in a financial position at a young age to afford anything else. Look, if we had access to NOS most would have thrown it in our cars instead of balancing and blueprinting it(since it wasn't available).lol Claude Ruel p.s. I like what the COPO's, Drag Pacs and Cobra Jets have brought to drag racing but I love all that is lurking under the K on down the alphabet of Stock. The Rambler is for Ed.

What would happen the 1st time you pull one or two in for tear-down ( Tear down ?? ).....

They also like heads - up .....never see any bracket racing at my track.. ( just test & tune)

Lot of work for it not to work..................
