Ok, a question since Houston has no Stock what about running the Challenger in Super Stock ? Im understanding is it falls into SS/IA and well so it can run in SS/JA with the 5.7

From a Mechanical perspective I believe the car meets all the requirments, trans shield,The cage is certed, everything "appears" to be all good from a rules perspective, what I "see" is a car that we "THINK" In testing should be good for 10.5 lets say out of the box from what we know from the 6.1 and what we know NOT to do

So lets just say , the DP with a 5.7, 305 hp at 3100lbs is good for 10.5, the JA index is 11 , the Record is 9.93 @130 .

A)Is there anything that would prevent the car from being ALLOWED to run as a SS Car ?
B)Is running say .4-.5 under Index good enough to Qualify ?
C)Is there ANY way that running it as such could hurt the Combo for Stock ?
D)How much more consistent are SS cars ? Or is it the opposite ?
E)How many people will I piss off by Trying it ? (that was a joke)

It looks like well be good for Houston, and have 2 solid days of testing prior (we have a track arranged

For PROPER testing and setup changes on OUR Schedule.

If the Car is Ready , and (and well know this in testing) Capable, is there a reason NOT To do it ?
