Very well said Crate Camaro. I to have expressed my opinions and said the same as you, only to be herded to the rear of the bus like trash. I really think these hatters need to have a good look in the mirror. When all of the 60 + year old farts die off and the class dies maybe they will think differently about crates. You are correct about our engines not being any different then a part number. Besides all of the stuff in the rule book on different parts that are acceptable now just makes there engines more of a crate engine then what we run. Our combo is more stock and runs faster then what they run is why they cant stand us.
