Ya. What he said..... my points exactly, problem is each the class, each brand will always revolve in some form or another. Sometimes you have let things take its course no matter if it's right or wrong, eventually it will be made right. But with that said We don't always need the kid in the back of class running up an crying to the principal and begging to be the star quarterback. Relax Trigger!!!!!.....:

If you're talking about me, you obviously don't know me very well.
But I would expect that from a west coast guy that races a couple of 340 cars.
I wonder if any of those "little brown envelopes" that I saw being passed around at Pomona in 2015 had anything to do with this deal.

Does it really matter what coast we all live on? No!! Yes I do have 2 340 cars, is that a problem? Sometimes you just have to say who really cares. I can send some tissues your way if that helps.

Hey pal, I didn't start with the name calling, you did.
This just happened. It can get fixed now without a lot of B.S. As soon as those cars start going down the track, it gets a whole lot more difficult to fix.
Keep your tissues, you'll need them.

There is no advantage other than the weight. When you go over the scales, your car has to be at min weight anyway. I don't see the big deal here? It sounds like nhra just approved nitrous for stock! Wow! There are a lot more important things going on it stock & super stock than a intake that is cast with the same dimensions as the cast iron one. What class do you run in Bill?

Billy has been a racer for years and a traditionalist when it comes to the rules. There are quite a few of us out there. BTW he has been a Division champ in 2 classes and All Stars rep multi times as well. His credentials are valid.

Why is it that some people can get aftermarket parts approved and others cant? Every time I asked for a replacement part for my combo, All I ever heard was "its not in the spirit of stock eliminator" .So I bring up other combo's, then was told "one mistake doesn't justify another".

I guess the Pontiac racers were able to hold the morality line in stock eliminator for everyone.

If there is no advantage to it other than weight then why do the 340's need this? If its not a big deal then just allow everyone to run an Edlebrock Performer then? There is a reason someone is pushing for this and the only reason isn't weight on the nose

You must be new at this, if you don't realize what happens if you take 50-60 lbs off the nose of a Stocker ,and put that amount in the weight box.
Pretty soon , we'll need wheelie bars.
Oh ,wait ..I forgot. We already have them...for safety!
