I highly doubt that.

Putting words in my mouth Chad? :-)

Just seems like knowlgeble engine builders would have been consulted when purpose built combos are submitted.

The following paragraph is from a letter that was sent to me on Jan. 30, 2009.

"It has always been NHRA's policy to use the specification produced by the manufacturer (via the Official NHRA Technical Information Form) to add a vehicle combination to the NHRA Class Guide and Blue Print Specifications. Also please keep in mind that NHRA has policies and procedures to correct any disparities the future may bring."

Bruce, that letter is nearly two years old, but I guess if either the CJ or Drag Pac were manufactured by GM, your letter would be insignificant, and NOBODY would hear about it

Re: What would you do with the current CJ and DP car situation?
 

The above mentioned letter was in response to my questions about the CJ but it also applied to all OEM's, even GM. You should actually read the post before stumbling out here to stir the pot with your little stick.

Why do you people think this is about brands? These cars are bogus and everyone on this forum knows it. Ask my buddy Verne Buchannon who is a long time Ford racer what he thinks about them. These cars should not be in the traditional stock classes no matter what car companies pu them out there.

Because that is all they have. The supporters have to play "what if" games to post any form of argument. They won't let facts get in the way of a good discussion.

agreed. I no more want to race an LS7 powered camaro or a blown vette heads up than I do a challenger DP or a CJ mustang. I do think it would be cool to see the big three go after each other, but not at the expense of the rest of stock eliminator.

Chad,

Do you know the main reason that you won't see too many if any of the new Camaros as Stockers or SS? They are so freaking wide you can't get them in the stackers or enclosed trailers that many racers own. They may be open trailer only cars which isn't such a bad deal, IMHO.

The nose on the camaros resemble a german half-track. Sorry.
