Cobra Jet vs Wescott Jr

Jim B · 08-26-2011, 01:18 PM

OK I'll be the one to ask. Are the CJ's and Hemi supposed to be in "legal" (or near legal) NHRA SS trim? Since the "rules" for the event specify "running modified NHRA Stock and Super Stock rules" I wonder how "modified" the front runners will be. I guess we'll know the answer pretty soon but what is the Blaine Ramey "exhibition" entry capable of? At any rate you have to give the promoters kudos for the interest this event has generated and to the racers for participating. Can't wait for the video.

I'm rooting for the Warfish. Don't fool yourself though thinking old vs new. That Hemi has alot of Pro Stock technology in it.

If any of the SS Cobra Jets have been modified as much as the rule book allows, I doubt it would even be a race between them with the blowers and the Warfish. As it is, I hope/bet Charlie will kick ***!

Charlie won't set foot on the property without appearance fee.LOL!
He'll make a time trial claim somethings wrong and leave.
