The CJ cars are teched going off NHRA stock/Super Stock rules. They changed up the weights this year a little bit and allowed tubular K-Members.

Looking at the rules and Jesse stating the minimum weight that would mean Holbrook ran it as a 13 with a 3.5 upper pulley. (10.0 index according to qualifying. http://www.nmradigital.com/cat/class...5-cobrajet.pdf) Which would mean that there is still more power left because the 14 pulley is a 3.375.

Holbrooks car is more as the factory produced then the other car. Smaller tire, more weight, larger car, stock suspension, less cubic inches, with factory cylinder heads…Just Saying ;)

I prefer to be blown…but I dig NA cars too.

I was just adding to the thread about a nice run. NOWHERE in the original post did it say that this was all about Holbrook. Its about a nice run this weekend, and I posted about another one.

Why don't you go post about a NON-STOCK/SUPER STOCK topic somewhere else if you don't like it? Holbrook's run has zero to do with Stock/Super Stock. Its at an event where its all about cobra jets and nothing else. Its not even based on NHRA or IHRA rules.... and in case you missed it, this is the STOCK and SUPER STOCK forum.

All Cobra Jets must meet NHRA rules to run the Showdown. The race itself takes on different weight breaks per engine combos per Ford Racing's recommendations.

I'm not accusing anyone of anything, I'm just saying, its possible that this run isn't at weight, doesn't have the correct pulley and all that Sh+t!
