There are always two sides to the coin, many many differnet opinions, those people that know me know that I dislike conflict, and im truly sorry if I will make anyone angry at me. I know that some might take this as an insult as I need to express this as I would to my 10 year old daughter.
WE WILL NEVER EVER BE ABLE TO RUN OUR CARS ALL OUT AGAIN !!!
WHEN I GET HP YOU WILL TOO !! LOTS !!
WHEN ANOTHER GUY IN YOUR CLASS WITH A FAST CAR GETS HP, YOU WILL GET IT TOO !! LOTS !!
AT ALTITUDE TRACKS ON MONDAY THERE WILL BE CLASSES GETTING HP !!
AT TRACKS WITH GOOD AIR THE TOP HALF OF THE FIELD WILL LOOK LIKE FOOLS TRYING TO SLOW THERE CARS DOWN !!
WHEN WE GET HP FOR YOUR COMBO YOU WILL BE VERY ANGRY AT US !!
CLASS ELIMINATIONS WILL BECOME A JOKE !!
If the above is acceptabe to you Stock / Super Stock racers that arent capable of looking into the future and seeing this is a bad idea so be it, as I said there are many sides to the coin. But I myself, and I see many others are not in agreeance and im gonna at least speak my mind. I dont feel that talking about how people use modified heads, soft combos, ect ect are even relevant here. Believe it or not we dont all cheat, and many of us have been thru teardown and had no issues. Some racers choose soft combos as its an easier, more cost effective way to build a faster race car. All of us have that same choice. But should us racers at the top half of the ladder pay the consequences for the racers that dont have time to flog there combos as we do, or have the extra money to buy the best parts as we have. Again, I dont feel any of this is relevant to the new AHFS proposed rule. I think we all need to look at the big picture and realize the bold thing I said above. Stock / Super Stock is a performance based class, by making this change the performance based part will be gone

Mark I agree 100%
If this goes through With in 5 years all will be racing brackets 1 through 5 .
No tear downs no record keeping. It will be a win win for NHRA Because they will have plenty of "can't build a fast car" strokes to show up and brag to their friends and family about how fast they are. Especially when there is nobody to compare them with. I see it all the time on the Neons.org site. "who has the fastest neon" that runs street tires, or runs pump gas, or only run 10 psi boost etc. etc.
In the long run this is going to get to everyone.
At this point I'm sorry I even built my car. I built my car to go fast within class rules now if I do go 1.50 under I get the index whacked almost half a second Thats B S
Any one want to buy a neon that can fly.
