I don't believe you will make a lot of friends doing this. Just because you can do this doesn't mean it's the right thing to do.

Fast cars do not make winners in Stock Elim, I know that, I like fast.....BUT I also like consistent.

Were driving the car now, our other driver had commitments.

As far as making friends, I have made a ton, and I hope to make more, if I kill someone in a heads up from a speed standpoint (and dont go red) I can see someone getting upset, but have you seen me drive ? I dont think its a fear many others who have seen me drive will have

Is it even legal to run a actual 2009 challenger? I mean if I went to the lot and bought one and wanted to run the engine that came in the car with the injection system that came on the car is it in the book? Or are only the bogus combos legal?

Unfortunatey NOT, I dont know why, It bugs me , we have a 2008 SRT8 That we would like to run as well......already have the damm car.....cant run it.

When the specs came out for the engines, It was plain to see that the 5.7 was the killer combo! Same heads, intake, throttle body as the 6.1 and more compression! Good for you Drooze on picking this engine. There will probably more 5.7 cars out soon but you will always be the first to go fast with one! As for all the complaining I remember when the newer camaro & firebird came out it was the end of the world for everyone that did not have one, but eventually they got factored correctly! So just go race your car and have fun that's what it's all about anyway, right?

I want to see a ET on the sheet, not a 20 lbs light 10.59 ET

The huge difference between this and the F bodys. With the F body you took a real car available at any dealership and converted it into a race car. These are 100% bogus. Show me one Challenger built for the public legal to drive on the roads that has any of these engines and injection systems.

I don't like it,you don't like it,a slew of people don'tlike it.NHRA likes it and the mustangs.Bottom line.If and until GM throws some ringers into the mix you all have you're new whipping boys,Drooze and Jeff.
Where are all the emails to Glendora,complaints to division directors,boycotts?Just a bunch of pi$$ing and moaning on the internet about it.

I think its funny they hate Drooze. Dont hate the player, hate the game.

NHRA made the rules now you hate the players. I heard he was 200 light not 20.

Back in the day....as the saying goes.....One of these cars would have a new class or classes made for them.... something like the FX classes

No friggen way this is a legal Stocker or Super Stocker for that matter.......They would not even be legal back in the days of liberal interpetation of the rules in the Jr Stock era......

No offense to you Chris.....as you say you did not create this car but your one run says a lot,reading between the lines on the slip and in who did it.....
