Didn't Steven Johnson just beat Jimmy Ronzello for class at Atlanta this weekend? You guys complaining about the Cobra Jets are providing us Ford guys with a great deal of entertainment about this whole issue.

Smitty,
One last time for you on this subject. These cars are making 750-800 horsepower. There's no point in trying to avoid the truth about these numbers any longer; no matter what you say about their ability to avoid a review by the ahfs. Now take your Ford hat off long enough to think about these questions. What is so terribly wrong with running these cars in a FX class or a Computerized injected class? Why does Brian Wolfe insist on running these cars in Stock when he knows he has beat the pants off the nhra tech department with a bogus Horespower number of 425? nhra will put these cars in any class he wants. Why does Mr. Wolfe insist on runing his over powered cars against 40 year old technology?

I don't know that much about Comp racing but, I believe nhra does not allow supercharged cars to run against normally aspirated cars in Comp. How fair is it to run these supercharged cars in Stock when they could be enjoying a great season in FX of Computerized Injected?

dwyndorf,
George's car did not run well this weekend. BTW he has been the only CJ owner/supporter who has shown a good sense of fair play. I respect him for honest responses.

Entertainment! You haven't seen entertainment yet.

I believe another "S" on the window is the only change. Sure didn't run any quicker than a Stocker.

Bruce,

I guess we will respectfully agree to disagree, I think NHRA's flawed AHFS will take care of the problem sooner or later. Now as for the supercharged Comp cars, Bo Butner ran a supercharged big block in his combo that Jeff Taylor built, a pro charger and it was stout! He hit the index numerous times, I was at the race where he ran to fast as he car wasn't certified to the et he was capable of. Then you have Hurley who ran twin turbos, Steve Matusek, John Gallina in SS with his twin turbo Regal. There are plenty of boosted combos out there.

Smitty,
You side stepped my question again. Respestfully disagree? What is wrong with running these 750-800 Horsepower cars in a FX class or Computerized Injected class? Please answer. I told you that I wasn't up on Comp. Turns out it applies to Street Roadster classes in Comp..

Art,
Combine classes? What are you talking about?
