If you haven't noticed, there are NHRA Stockers running 8.50's.
If you think you can just crank up the boost on the blown cars to run an 8.50 you're kidding yourself and I've been around long enough to see how "untransparent" the rules are. Stock , running an 8.50 , yeah right.
And NO , I don't follow stock.
I don't really think the word "disingenuous" applies by its definition........perhaps you were looking for a noun like sarcasm.
BTW , the new Mustangs , Camaros and Challengers may impress you but they do nothing for me..........regardless of how or WHAT they do to interpret the rules to run what they do. Come back and cuss me , slam me , insult me all you want.....it falls on deaf ears.
