Default Re: Competition Plus DP and CJ article

Bobby please explain what research you did on the article as I find issue with these three paragraphs.

Over the Labor Day weekend at the NHRA U.S. Nationals in Indianapolis, forty percent of the top twenty qualifiers in the NHRA’s Super Stock and Stock divisions were comprised of either these Mustangs or Challengers. In the Stock division, half of the top twenty qualifiers were in the purpose built street legals cars.

As I understand it none of the cars are street legal.

“They [NHRA] were very accommodating,” said Hakim. “We worked very closely with guys like Danny Gracia and Bruce Batchelder in making sure the cars met the requirements. I can say I was very proud to be a part of that program.”

One look at the HP ratings tells you how accommodating NHRA was.

And for the manufacturers and the NHRA, there exist a growing sense of pride in returning to their roots of fast showroom cars meeting the horsepower arena of the drag strip.

I checked my local showroom there was not one any where to be found. Not to mention the Challenger would have to go down the track on trailer if you want to go from the dealer to the track. The Challengers at my local dealer are not approved by the NHRA to race.
