Re: Aftermarket/Replacement Cylinder Head Rule Change
Dang, Jones you made me loose my place in my latest go fast book. All kidding aside Eric does some really nice work, look at Mike Cotten, Eric Bell, some FE Fords, and a host of others that are real fast. Eric does hard smart work.

Re: Aftermarket/Replacement Cylinder Head Rule Change
Sorry to remind you but a nice list of five or six "spec" motors could replace ALL the motors and limit costs, parts chasing, tech difficulty and limit number of overall classes stick and auto could get back to more "class racing" . Someone has to begin to constructively plan for the future of class racing. Racer could use current car and any of the motors based on lb per cubic inch instead of continual bogus hp movements to fit choice of classes.
No I am not currently racing so some are welcome to object to me offering thought but the BIG picture is the problem not the aftermarket fit of a head or ccs etc. |

Re: Aftermarket/Replacement Cylinder Head Rule Change
I'm thinking that this is just another watering down of Stock eliminator. There are plenty of sbc heads out there, just bending the options which deminishes the word "Stock".

Nothing personal, but that has to be one of the worst ideas to come down the pike in years. Why call it "Stock Eliminator" at all at that point? "Spec Engine Eliminator"?

NHRA has its flaws but still is the best game in town. Car counts are steadily coming back after the years following the recession and I suspect they will improve again this year with a ever more improving economy. It has its flaws but its not broken so I wish everyone would quit trying to fix it. Its not the 70's or 80's anymore and people are not drawn to cars like they were at one time, there are too many options for people to enjoy their time with so I think under the circumstances NHRA is doing quite well.
