It would take someone with far more time and patience than I have to go back five years and look. But, I would bet every last dollar to my name, that new (2008-newer) cars have won 95% (yes, ninety-five percent, or more) of the heads-up runs in eliminations at National and Divisional events since 2009. And even the few runs they lost (be it Class or Eliminator) were probably due to redlight/breakage/spin/.200+ light. Seldom do they ever actually get outrun.
