If you were in charge, what would YOU do?

If it were me, the CJ's, COPOs, and DP's would be the new Pro Stockers. There could be brand recognition and parity, and maybe some serious manufacturer involvement again. Look back to the Funny Cars and A/FX in the 60's. The manufacturers didn't gain any sales that way, just like I doubt anyone bought a new Dart because Allen Johnson wins in one (or they didn't after finding out a carbureted Hemi isn't on the option sheet). They want to sell cars people can see race, and actually buy the street counterpart of the next day. Which is why they wanted guys like Sox and Martin, for an example, in Super Stock and Stock. If you were a die-hard PS fan, and you saw Dave Connolly win in a white COPO, you could actually go to your Chevy dealer the next day, buy a new white Camaro, and feel like you were in a car just like Connolly drives. Try that in a Dart!

Michael Beard pictorial is right on, put the body styles of the new generation cars (Mustang/Camaro and Challengers) back to the style and showmanship of the Butch Leal/Ronny Sox etc. etc. days. From an old school racer the 'NHRA' days are numbered as they are so out of touch with the grass roots racer and fans.

I can guarantee you that the current climate is not what Wally Parks had envisioned and corporate America is watching and when they see all the empty seats and dwindling participants the count down is on.

Multi car teams in both NHRA and Nascar are going to be the ultimate downfall as they are sucking the life blood out of both sports.

He's had to rebuild his and Humphrey's motors, so he had to miss Q2 and 3 to get them done...
