A 4.0 Whipple Supercharger! Holly crapolla Batman! :D
And now Goodyear has CJ specific and branded slicks?
You can't tell me these things have not created a ton of excitement in the industry.

I gotta say, Ford sure knows how to make a guy want to beg!

As the only U.S. car maker not needing a gov bailout they evidently have a clue.

If GM were to try to do something like this they would screw it up so badly it would sink, no one left there that really understands Drag Racing. They have not had a real Sportsman Program since the Oldsmobile ERA. Pontiac just pick up the scraps form Oldsmobile.

GM has screwed up everything they have tried to do for several years. One of the worst managed companies on the planet.

When is the NHRA going to wise up and put these cars in their own class? If you do them like the 68 Darts and Barracudas that'll keep the indexes from getting hammered.

Did I hear that AMC got a gift in the head department in SS?

Ford will also be selling "rollers" with apparently everything but the engine & trans. $50k was the preliminary price. It was the blue one in their display.
