I respect Ken for telling it so it would not happen to others......I also think Ken would have told it if he was given til the next race. You have my respect Ken...This is two ways of looking at it from both sides. Shady rule as you say anyway....
If it did indeed happen the other week with another car, why didn't they just issue a bulletin, a rule clarification? If one guy does it, there are probably more out there either effected, or people considering the upgrade to their car. They should just let everyone know where they stand on the issue and be done with it. It shouldn't have taken Kenny to bring this to light.

As for the rule itself, NHRA says "same manufacturer" and then backtracks when THEY allow the manufacturer to run things in Stock that shouldn't be there in the first place.
