Well Jack now the new "kit cars" are capable of running as low as L.I don't think I have to worry unless Ford of Fiat decides to build a twin turbo injected factory ported OHC motor rated at 150 HP and someone wants to spend a whole lot of dough to run Q,R,T.Then they'll have the whole eliminator in their control.Don't think it could happen?Who would have thought a stocker could go 9.30s a few weeks back.
So in the end Stock will come down to being the playground for rich,bored guys,some

Jack, in order, I appreciate your offer to speak at a seminar but (as we all already know) no one, not even a Tech Official fully knows the language of Techspeak so I'm affraid I will have to politefully decline. As far as the principles for a 6 and a V8 being the same, you've apparently never hung out with Big Block Camaro guys.
As far as the new cars "putting us out to pasture", you're missing the point of the seminars. the new cars are just (just) going to make most of the old A thruL cars not competitive any longer. i am only trying to teach Racers using the old cars that there are alternatives to 400+ ci engines and 4 bbl carbs.
The second seminar is still up in the air as I haven't filled the Quota for the first one yet and I'm not sure if the Camaro guys can truely be saved. They may be too far gone.
My fridgeholds NO "suds"! You can either drink Cuervo in the shop with the real men or drink tea with the girls on the porch!

Ed - Much of this is true .........but in the end when we're racing you still have to get out the shoe polish and put a number on the window ( and run it ) and get a light -- you proved that to all of us at Norwalk ( and Reading ) last year .Big money cars have the exact same chance as you to win ...........

Billy - OK - you're right - I've not hung out much with the big block crowd - but I do like to speak and can fill up some time slots .And there is always hope for Camaro guys ( and gals ) - don't give up on them .And believe me once word gets out a bunch of the "Florida" guys will be begging to attend your deal .

As for where I'll be -- here it is -- I'll be on the porch with the ladies ....clean hands or not ! !

Jack,the problem starts down the road a ways,when enough of these cars get out there
and the heads up races start in eliminations.Take you for example.You always have fast cars.But can your LS-1s keep up with the Fords and DPs in an elimination heads up run?
You're right about me not worrying about this problem.For now.How about down the road.How greedy will Ford,Mopar and NHRA get?
I have to wonder what NHRA is thinking.
