Being that I'm 67yr young. When I turned 18. I could buy a brand new 1973 Plymouth Duster with a good job. No matter what engine it came with. It had a class in stock class elimininator.With some handy work and a few performance parts. A helmet on my head. No matter which way it was facing. A NHRA membership. You were running in the big show. Hook the tow bar back on and head home a winner. (On a quick note. Show 100 18 yr olds today a 1973 Plymouth duster picture. "Name that Car!") But now when the 18yr old goes to buy a new car. Well, we have a class for the new 632 engine. Can I drive it to work? It is amazing to me NHRA is blind to this supject. Personally some might know I am/was building a 2014 Challenger. On my wallet size all work has to be done by myself in my 2 car garage. It was beyond the normal stock build. Paul Wong ask to get the same car's V6 in the books. They put the 5.7 in at 300hp. They offer putting the V6 in at factor rated 305. Hello!! I'm over the 8 second combos being added in stock for the well to do.One other note. In 1973 the stockers didn't do wheelies so don't say that what everyone likes.
