3.25% for the DP & CJ is just a slap in the face

Time line - late 1960's......if there was an internet back then it would have gone something like this.

"Everyone with 55-57 Chevy stockers are being run out of business. These new Mustangs and Camaros should be put in a different class. We just cannot compete with those new factory built cars. They need to have horsepower added to them or else I'm going to have to quit racing. NHRA needs to do something before Stock is gone."

Well in 1972 NHRA did do something.

Charlie, I know how to keep me in the sport. Lower my horse power rating.

Maybe NHRA should do it again like they did in 1972? Todays stockers are already "Super" with all of the allowed modifications,such as wheelie bars, ported heads and intakes, aftermarket alum heads, small journal rods, light wt. short block assemblys, transmissions that never came behind the engines being used, roll cages, elec. water pump drives, heavy pressure valve springs, paper cars, factory limited production combos and on and on and on ! It just could be thier plan for the future? Has anyone ever "THUNK" about that? Maybe history will repeat its self?
