Danny, why dont you and Mike get your heads together and just jack up the HP ratings to where they belong? To many classes already. If your to lite on the first hit do it again until its right and if they get factored out of stock....make S/S cars out of them or has Ford paid off IHRA also?

I would love to do that ,but you would have to pick a veh at random maybe and dyno it and go from there. (who's gonna do that ? $$$$) But that would be expensive. Then everyone would want to dyno everybody in most classes.....Who really knows just how much HP these cars are really making.....(besides the owners)..?

This is the sort of thing that is indefensible! Purely a decision that was bought and paid for! Jim

Jim, you got that dead right.
