Crate Motor Class

[Dan Fahey]

NHRA missed and opportunity to pick up several hundred more cars.
That is a lot of business.

I think NHRA will add Crate Motors!
It is a natural fit for the existing program.
Plus attract more attention from aftermarket industry.
Which may provide more Contingincy money.

NHRA is allowing new Build Blocks, Heads and Manifolds.
I think the class should be call Modified Stock!

NHRA should create a new Stock Eliminator Class and keep it Stock
Designed to allow new production cars to compete against each other.
Some new Production cars are running mid 9 sec out of the factory.
Even the L4s and V6s are quicker then most Muscle Cars.
Get back to classic Bolt On Mods.
Which would attract more aftermarket products!

All about the business of earning money and having fun..

Dan, how did NHRA miss on getting hundreds of new racers? I thought
they developed an 1/8 miles series just for the disenfranchised crate
motor cars. 92.4 % are in Division 2. Your logic escapes me.

Hey Dan, I don't know why you continue to do this you are the most ****ed-up individual I've ever met give it up and NHRA don't want you leave it alone.

This........Delusional Dan, NHRA doesn’t want OR need you, at times I am not sure they want any of us.....

Mini tubed cars are not stock , 10.5 tire cars are not stock and crate motor cars are not stock. The first two can fit super stock and crate motors can go play in the brackets.

Dan, you got pretty beat up on here back in December or so. Now you're back with more "ideas".
Assuming your idea took off, how long until your new car stockers are just as, um, "stock" as Stock Eliminator? It's the nature of the beast. The more rules there are, the more "innovation" there will be!

I've been a fan of Stock Eliminator (and a participant for a few years in the 90's) since the early 70's. I don't agree with the way it has gone. But that's what it is! I don't participate!
I would never expect it to change to suit me! That's ridiculous!
