Personally I believe, best way to check combinations is heads up racing. Doing it now will allow future changes if one combination should dominate.
Doing it quickly will keep interest in class.
Also, changing pulley size is probably least expensive thing to change.
Will they have to do a lot of testing, sure, but what top teams are not doing a lot of testing.
Class has basically become Prostock version 2.0 18 wheelers hauling stockers around.

The big Question becomes who's Sandbaging when and where?

Just curious, NHRA slowed down the Chevy's but did nothing to the drag paks (Leah Pritchard) who out-qualified the Chevy's. Just wondering why?

Cool Re: Adjustment - Factory Stock Showdown

I would be willing to bet that NONE of the fast cars were torn down and certified as being legal either !

They are in their own class,they can also run comp. Case you didn't know



It's funny, but all the people on here who are commenting and giving competition suggestions not one person participates or has anything to do with the class. I'm not even sure who races on this thread.

They did for the old combinations - but the 2019 CJ and COPO weigh 3575 - same as the 2015 Drag Pak.
