Is that with a stock 11 inch with 1800 stall or do you guys have real race converters? BTW, What is the stall speed of the stock converter in one of the DP 512 cars?

It seems the production cars have a little better starting line combo than this prototype I have. The one's I have seen stall above 6000, and shift @ 6500. Footbrake to 25 to 35. We got all kind of new stuff, but can't really say if any of it is worth anything yet. One thing as said at the beginning of this thread is these cars, DP's and the Catfish looking mustangs will throw you the wheel spin curve just when you think you got it figured out. On the dp's (and any other wide car) the rear tread is so wide, it's is actually hard go fit the car in the grove. The cars are substantially wider than my 69 Super Bee. I lost in Indy last year, final in the CIC race at No Problem, and final at Silver Dollar points race last year with wheel spin. And I ain't lookin for sympathy, just stating a couple of facts about the new cars.

Why not just take some HP off of them since they are spinning so bad and getting their butts kicked all of the time. GEEZ

From what I've seen and read. They should let you do what you want. Thats the state of the NHRA. If you don't like your trans use something else. If your rear is weak get a bigger rear. If you don't like your stock intake ,get an after market intake. This is what Stock eliminator has come to. So, just make your own rules.

Fred,

Please stop doing, what I think you are doing, because it's going to make you blind
