What so bizarre and amusing? Rules changes to a class that's waaay overdue? Yeah , thats pretty "bizarre" and "amusing".
Forget about engines that are "EXACT" to production platforms , BECAUSE A 500 INCH ENGINE SURE AS HELL ISNT...............it doesn''t matter that Ford doesn't have a good 2 valve combo , or Dodge or whatever. I'm talking purpose built race engines on a smaller scale. The 500 inch engines are so far removed from anything production...... AT A MINIMUM wholesale changes need to be made to represent todays engine displacements closer to 350 -427 inches...then add fuel injection......whatever. Carbs have to go. Its really very simple and some of you seem to over dramatize or attempt to complicate a simple solution........forget about the Pintos , Vega's and Arrows , EXPs.
Settle on " A " displacement more indicative of todays cars. The changes about Pro Stock cannot be an intention to make a change while keeping those participating happy at the exclusion of attracting new participants.
And theres a fine line between exclusion and extinction.


How about the new cars starting their own say, F/PS class and evolving like PS has? After all they are all using current PS technology. I think it would be great. PS might...., need a little tweaking but not from the new factory cars. PS cars are light years ahead of them.

I got the memo Alan! I am ready!
