What horsepower?

This is going to take some time to fix. This is no different than when Pontiac was the sponsor and the EFI Camaros and Firebirds were absolutely killing the fast "old school" cars. We have to hope that through this year's class racing the "egos" will get the best of the HP factor and these guys will race each other and factor themselves. We can never replace the technological advancements that will always keep our old cars behind, but we can continue to work on them to make them faster. I can't wait to see how fast they will be when some guys actually take them apart and "blueprint" all the detail work. The downfall of the Cobra jet is that if you go to the barn for a teardown, the majority of racers are out simply because they can't get it back together in the short time that follows teardowns that go until 9:00 pm. I know how fast Brian Phillips Firebird is and that poor guy got smoked at Indy. Not only can he make horsepower but also hit the tree. On top of all that, he is a great guy. All of us old school guys just need to keep working and hide your results a little.
