Its not even a little bit fair to run cars like these supercharge CJ's heads up with the older muscle cars (FI or Carburated) in the same class. They make thier own atmosphere (cylinder pressure) for the intake charge. They may be what detroit produces today but they will put ALL of the rest of you out of business if they continue to run in the same class. $50,000 + stockers and S/S'ers will become worthles expensive bracket cars when someone decides to run one in S/S also. 2 different technolgies involved here.

All very true! Boost vs NA is a no contest! Hopefully NHRA realizes that the CJ's are severly underated and changes hp rating to 500hp. Just like they did with Butner's boosted comp car a couple of years ago. I think they lowered his index .5 tenths or so after they underestimated it the first time.
A min. wt of 3920 lbs in AA/s(a) should slow those CJ's down enough.
