Solution has already been devised.
Personally, I would love to have a new 428 Mustang one day if the prices ever come down because I think the new Challengers are just fugly. But like someone pointed out, no one watching these cars run the big numbers is standing on the starting line saying "wow, thats awesome, those guys did a great job". Once the factors come around I think it's going to be pretty cool to see '68 and '10 Cobra Jets racing each other. I just don't see the fun in beating someone by a half of a second because of a horsepower factor issue. Granted there are some combinations other than these cars that are off by ten, maybe fifteen horsepower but that's been the case for a long time now and being down a tenth in a heads-up run is not insurmountable in a lot of cases.
Class at the Dutch in C/SA was going to be awesome (if it ever got done); old camaro, corvette, 440 6-pack, lt1 cars. Class in A/SA was going to be a joke but had the potential to be a great show with a huge mix of american muscle both new and old if things were somewhere near correct.
Oh well, I guess time will tell if NHRA has any answer to this. Stinks to see the trend of guys going to Super Stock, running lower classes, and going to less races because of this.
