Whatcha gonna go test...your words per minute? As for me, I'll be actually racing a car down a track....and going fast, a concept you have a hard time comprehending.

Why can't we all get along. Life is too short.

Not that its any of you business Sean, but I'm going to test the I/SA 92 camaro we just got. Would have gone last night but I worked too late. As for going fast, I'd say building a low 8 second Outlaw Drag Radial that I know a little about that

Tech man, you are a good guy, but you are way off base on this deal. I'm the same guy who slept in the back of pickup trucks in the 50's to race and the same guy who has run enough combos over the years to know the difference. I'm the same guy who couldn't run with the 428's and 396's with my 6 pak, (ran 1 under, but they ran 1.3 under) because the rules were in their favor. I changed sides. We don't need all that tripe you are throwing out there. As far as the new program proposed by NHRA would be offensive to more old cars than new, by about 6 to 1. Facts from figures which were provided to me. That would go over real well with the children. Sorta like hunting Elk with a blunderbuss @ 200 yards. Any I was only looking for results from Stock @ Pomona and I wound up here.

Whether the CJ’s and DP’s are soft or not (and I will throw my combo into that comment also for you whiners) it’s a shame that a PERFORMANCE BASED class could be destroyed by a bunch of whining crybabies who figure the way to move up the qualifying sheet is to complain about the guys at the top rather than working on their stuff or picking a better combo.
Flame away….. Seems to be the only thing some of you are really capable of. Maybe try spending some time on a dyno instead of a keyboard you may be surprised with the results.

Best post on this thread yet.......

Bill your wrong, there are a half a dozen cars in Div. 1 alone that are tops in their class, they have spent much money and dyno time and will still not ever catch the new cars, You are not going to get that much hp out of carb car that has been flogged for the last 5 years under the current rules period.....

Just wait 'til these guys take the beehive springs out and really turn some Super Stock rpm.

I'm with Teuton. I checked into this thread to see the result of this race. And imagine that, another whine thread about CJ and DP cars.

As someone who is DIRECTLY affected by the underfactored built on paper ringers they call cars .I am appalled that a roller cam aluminum intake injected roller rocker high compression purpose built race piece is the EXACT same 284 hp factor as my all iron hydraulic flat tappet emmisions low lift iron intake plastic carb low copression engine with 70's castings and that was actually produced for use by the masses. These cars were built on the same premis that the hemi darts & cudas were built on. PUT THEM IN SUPER STOCK WHERE THEY BELONG. This has caused me to park my currently worthless ride until they factor out or I find something else to build that I can afford!HA HA
