Look when Mopar brought out the 68 1/2 Hemi Darts and Cudas.. The factory kept the rating at 450 hp even though everyone knew they made 550 hp. Out of the box they ran 10's, just like these new factory rockets.

NHRA had to create the Pro Stocks because of the domination of this factory supercars...

Now they had to move the Hemi Darts and Barracuda cars to their own Super Stock Class because of their dominance.

NHRA will allow this to continue because of the factory involvement. The factories have left the NHRA behind for so long in favour of Nascar that they are opening the involvement with open arms.

Sorry.. unlike the the 60's where they would have factored these car out of contention, the economy has forced NHRA's hand on this one.

A/SA will be a factory experimental class for the rich..
