Old vs New during rounds
 

How many old cars have been out run in a heads up run for a money winning round by a new car, in lets say the last 5 years?? Stock or super stock.

I have lost to every new car I have raced heads -up. Maybe I need to work more on my stuff! The race that stings the most is the fourth round loss to Cour ,Heads up to his blown Mustang. We drove 2300 miles one way to get my ***** handed to me on a plate. Quick recap of the race I'm better at the tree and he is 7mph faster at the 1/8 mile and way ahead down track. I was only down 100+ hp. I heard that the car was on 65% throttle.

And, many try to play the ladder to avoid them.

Mr. Larry I understand your pain. Kevin lost to a local friend in the fourth round in a heads up run. The throttle was being played with the whole run. Now these were both new cars. So new cars get their @&$ handed to them as well. I'm just seeing in numbers how many races have the new cars dominated.

The last few world champions drove which kind of cars?

How man of the older cars play that same ladder game because of other old cars? Everyone plays that game to get an "advantage" right?

So, if none of that matters anyway, you guys would be cool with getting 75 to 100 hp to make things more equal?

Larry, I seem to remember you beating Lambeck's Camaro in a heads-up during that swing so that must have been some consolation. Jacob Pitt beat a good Drag Pak car with his ex-Wann Cuda during the Reynolds race. Also think that win was crucial in winning the D4 Stock championship...that's double-sweet right there.

We are not the ones b@&ching all the time. All I'm saying is, get into the classes so that you never have or very seldom have a heads up race with a new car then none of this matters to you. Old cars win more races than what you call an underrated overpowered cars! Find the stats on the winnings!

Whichever there are the most of, will usually have the most race wins. Simple math.
All heads up would be a different deal.
You certainly aren't like conversing with your Dad.

There is no correlation between HP factors and driving ability, nor is there any correlation between the veracity of any HP factor and any winning percentage (heads-up or otherwise).
