Greg and Chad you guys kill me you think there is no hard work involved in building one of these new cars. There is no less work in building a 2010 mustang then in building a 1971 camaro. Good parts cost the same no matter what car they go in.

Greg you forgot about bogus heads and intakes. Oh wait all Stocker pre 2008 already have these parts

Charlie, I didn't say anything about hard work. They all take work to build. Not all are capable of 1.5 seconds under the index.

Charlie, I'd tend to agree with your statement. The answers needed to get an edge on the other new cars is not a known quantity. That part of it is exciting.
Once again, the bitch is the factors, not the cars. When the battle really heats up between the new cars, the ET's will drop big time. There are big chunks of power left to find in these new combos, not so in the '71 Camaros. With the factors so "wrong" now, it's likely to be even worse. Love the cars, hate the factoring.

I agree. Love the cars themselves. Can't blame anybody for building one. Just don't like the idea of having to race one in class or heads up.
