Re: 2016 Factory Stock Showdown Schedule
 
I agree with Kevin about the indexes, coming up with decent payouts, and running this program in front of the crowds. If these things things are not addressed this will be a giant effort in futility.

NMCA has a great idea but unfortunately their program won't work either from a competitive standpoint. There is no way a NA car can get light enough to ever be competitive and evidently they just don't understand the limitations of these cars.

Also I believe Clay Arnett to be correct when he stated there is no way to mix the two types of cars in to one heads up eliminator even if the NA cars could get light enough.

Which one makes more power?

I think Barton has that blown one #5 I think above 1100 and looking for more and the other is not yet done, and is a work in progress. I think the 354 is 530 factored currently. Hopefully the run times, etc will be more attractive to people with these cars. Them high priced things don't run good at 8 am with empty stands.

Hey Ron, If your as far behind as Mopar releasing the 2015 blown cars, I call them 16s.-ha. I think the Hellcat makes the most power @ 707. The other ones are only 530/540hp.

As far as running them during regular class eliminations; Englishtown and Norwalk don't have Stock Class eliminations this year (E-town has Super Stock Class elims). Unless the NHRA changes the Stock Class Elims. schedule; they will run standalone at E-town and Norwalk. Here is a link to the Class Eliminations Schedule.
