Superb Article On Current State of Stock Eliminator

[Gary Parker]

DP and CJ are all bogus. Art, don't you run a bogus combo. I look at what people have done with the other cars they have run. Can not make them run, but now they are top qualifiers. Yea right. Most of us have worked hard on our cars and made them run good. We do not relie on NHRA for a soft HP rating. And that is the trruth, like it or not!!!!!!!

Yeah I've always run "bogus combos" 1970 RT Challenger convertible (hemi), 1987 Dodge Shadow turbo I. (Real bogus they only made milliuons of them LOL) 1991 Dodge Spirit ES (another rare find LOL)
And last but not least the rareest of them all a Dodge Neon. Do you realize the only way you could get one was to buy it. You had to be one of those special people with real money."The inhumanity of it all"

LOL LOL

I can't believe you or anyone else can defend this bogus BS. These cars have no business in the traditional stock classes, they were never produced as a street legal car and the motors are not even crate motors. They are just a bunch of parts from the hi po catalogs of Ford and Chrysler. Let me have a set of fast burn heads, a 520 solid roller cam, a victor intake and a dominator carb plus 11.5 to 1 compression and rate my motor at 285 and let the games begin.

Greg. I was answering a comment that my combos were bogus. Or do you agree the cars I've run are bogus?
Please read the post before commenting.

This is just a guess and I could be wrong, but I don't believe he was referring to the quantity produced.

I don't want to put words in his mouth, but the way I took it was he meant bogus factor.

I don't know about your current ride, but any car that can go 2 seconds under the index I would say the factor is just a little off.

I will answer the question then, I would say your Hemi challenger would qualify as a race car but the rest you listed are about as much of a race car as a VW bug. Sure there are spec's in the guide, but most poeple wouldn't think of them as race car may be you do, this not the same situation that we have now with these new under rated cars.

The Turbo dodges have been in the clasification guides since 1984. It's not built by GM?
My Neon is pounds per cubic inch. There is no HP factor.What's your point?
PS I have qualified number 1 at an NHRA event with every car I have raced.

Artie, His point was to take a shot at FWD cars, and therefore at you, in total anonymity .
