Spy shots - Don Garlits Challenger

[denny harvey]

I think they should be in SS along with the new z-r1 vette,ford has done a great job of putting the mustang in the right peoples hands that can make them fly,mopar i dont know..

All of you all comments sound exactely like the comments that were said when the older cars came out long time ago. are you all sure you all were not saying the same things many years ago when the hemis and fords came out then LOL at us

[Larry Hill]

Let them all RACE, just to keep the field leval.

Ok, one car has yet to face an older one in the same class in competion yet and the other hasn't even seen the track and you guys are bitching. Damn, the fastest car doesn't always win. If stock eliminator consisted of all AA/SA(S) and A/SA(S) cars I might see the problem here but they don't so the guys will have to put a number on the window and run the dial in and hit the tree period!
Are you gonna bitch everytime someone brings a new combo to the table? Look over in SS, Bobby Dennis is the master of finding the odd ball GM engines and making them dominate. He is vey fast but against his index he's killer and a threat to qualify number one anywhere, yet he isn;t winning all the races. He did a real good job last year and thats because he works hard at it.
I really need to know what's the big deal? Chrysler built the Hemi back in the 60's as a purpose built SS car and you couldn't drive it on the street. There were to versions, the street and race just like Ford.
Quit your whining and race, it's not the end of the world.

They dont have to be street legal due to all of the Govt. BS thats required to pass EPA and safety regulations today but no special runs of such small amounts produced. My 1 cent worth

I too would like to see these cars in the S/S class and let the other showroom cars battle out in stock. Now I wasn't around back in the day but how do these cars differ in their classification from the 68 HEMI A body cars? Aren't both factory built as race cars with no intentions of them being street legal? I mean I understand the 41 year difference between the two. Now before some hot head jumps on that question with sarcasm, I'm asking out of lack of knowledge.
