Trans. Rule Change For 2013

james schaechter · 09-15-2012, 07:13 AM

I sure don't understand how this even got into play. Do cars that get a 3 speed get more hp? You know, like the alum heads for example? I know there will be some that say that the 3 speed isn't quicker........but they will buy 2 anyway.

Now I don't really mind too much, but how can the so called stock ss NHRA committee push this through when they won't consider a seat upgrade and some of the more reasonable requests? Heck, I remember bloody hell broke loose over seats and no one that I recall was looking for jaz or kirkey's, just a better newer OEM or equivalent.

Do we have to follow the money on this one?

P.S. Maybe I do care if we combine sticks and autos....put me down for a clutchless 5 speed as a rider on that bill before Danny quietly passes it. :-)
