Wink Re: New Horse Power Ratings

Those HP increases didn't do much to slow down the Mustangs. Cour's AA/SA car is sitting Number 1 right now at Woodburn.

My definition of a pig is someone who runs a combo that is 50 to 75 hp soft and writes a letter to get more hp taken off. You don't have a fast car, you haven't accomplished anything, all you have is a car in the wrong class.

Greg you are telling me that my 281CI motor combo in SS should be rated at 285HP in SS. Come on Greg my combo in SS is NOT light on HP.

Wrong class by whose definition ? Yours

Greg you can still run over 1.00 under so I also feel your combo is also underrated. I just play by the same rules you play by and you are just mad because I played it better. You guys should not get STK and SS factors mixed up, it makes you all look like idiots.

Just for the record I never asked for HP off my STK combo.

2012 Mustangs did not get any HP

I'm still trying to figure out why the 1969 428 CJ got HP?

You have to be a real pig to write a letter to get hp taken off that combination. The same motor with a smaller throttle body and less compression in a 2008 Mustang GT is 300hp.
