i hope they both get HP on tuesday

gee, how did I know you'd mouth off. why do you worry about your race tomorrow, and go out there and run all 1320' maybe even at 100% throttle. AS for ME, I'll be working and testing. My stuff might not be as fast as yours, never claimed that it was, but at least I don't need an underfactored bogus *** car with a blower to feel good about myself.

Whatcha gonna go test...your words per minute? As for me, I'll be actually racing a car down a track....and going fast, a concept you have a hard time comprehending.

Not that its any of you business Sean, but I'm going to test the I/SA 92 camaro we just got. Would have gone last night but I worked too late. As for going fast, I'd say building a low 8 second Outlaw Drag Radial that I know a little about that

Tech man, you are a good guy, but you are way off base on this deal. I'm the same guy who slept in the back of pickup trucks in the 50's to race and the same guy who has run enough combos over the years to know the difference. I'm the same guy who couldn't run with the 428's and 396's with my 6 pak, (ran 1 under, but they ran 1.3 under) because the rules were in their favor. I changed sides. We don't need all that tripe you are throwing out there. As far as the new program proposed by NHRA would be offensive to more old cars than new, by about 6 to 1. Facts from figures which were provided to me. That would go over real well with the children. Sorta like hunting Elk with a blunderbuss @ 200 yards. Any I was only looking for results from Stock @ Pomona and I wound up here.

Whether the CJ’s and DP’s are soft or not (and I will throw my combo into that comment also for you whiners) it’s a shame that a PERFORMANCE BASED class could be destroyed by a bunch of whining crybabies who figure the way to move up the qualifying sheet is to complain about the guys at the top rather than working on their stuff or picking a better combo.
Flame away….. Seems to be the only thing some of you are really capable of. Maybe try spending some time on a dyno instead of a keyboard you may be surprised with the results.

amen to that ! Cant wait to see what NHRA has planed for you new underrated car owners. Some stuff coming for the older combos to. Some good...some not so good so I hear. 2011 after Pomona will be different for sure.
