Pass Time from Las Vegas

True that Herring isn't familiar with stock or super stock but... If Pond gave them the real horsepower that the engine put out, and not the NHRA rated HP, they would have had an idea of what it could run. Pond did a good job of downplaying what he had. Anyway Pass Time is a good show and i'd like to see more class cars on there.

When we were at Vegas and decided to run Pass Time on the second day of taping, they told us to please give the approx horsepower when asked. We were told Ken Herring was pissed over the fact that the racers wouldn't give the actual horsepower only the factory rated. They said to us while they realize we as class racers don't want to tell the world what we make for actual horsepower, if you want to be on Pass Time, they at least expect you to give the contestants an approximation to make it fair.

You would think that the name Robert Pond would have been recognized, he is the AA/S National Record Holder, and AA/S was clearly visible on his windshield.
