Make the Chevrolet Win

Greg, what are the hp numbers to push those three front ends? If the powers that be take the route of pro stock, like a common template that heads down the same dead end that ruined pro stock.

I don’t have a clue about the hp the three are making, although I would guess the Dodge is probably 50 or so better right now. One of our young engineers could probably weigh in on the aero stuff.

What I was asking is how much horsepower does it take to overcome the aero of the front ends. That was a common number used in pro stock until the template changed the actual shape of the different makes.

When they start dictating these stupid rules, it takes away from the "run what ya brung" class. Start factoring in weights-HP, then it's just the regular bracket-Stock class, same ole same ole.
What's really pissing them off is Dodge could be the first in the 7s (legally) and not their money cows.
