Wow Charley, I'm impressed. A real generalization about all those who are on the board posting and their habits. Makes you look more like a clown than the most of us(there's always someone on every board that looks like a clown most of the time). The only reason you talk like that is because you own one of the cars with a very favourable HP rating. I'm quite sure you'd be just like many others here if you still had a different combo.
Everyone know's the HP ratings are a joke, but the fact you have the factories pushing these soft combos and you don't have to look deeply for an odd combo like some racers have done in the past, makes for a lot of soft combos and not just a rarity, is disturbing to many. I'm not knocking the fact that you were wise enough to play the game to your advantage, just that your post was in very poor taste as you implied everyone here(except for you) is a clown and you know that isn't the case. JMT.

To those that don't believe the Cobra Jet Hp factors are too soft:
http://www.racingjunk.com/Stock-Supe...COBRA-JET.html From the add: This car will run 1.50 under in E/SA at over 100lbs. heavy, with 6 quarts of XP3, timing backed down, and shifting 500 rpm early! No ice or chiller needed. If you let it run at its peak, it can go more than 1.70 under. You can also set this car up to run at whatever you like in minutes! #1 qualifier at the Infineon NHRA Divisional and National events. Qualified #6 at Vegas to avoid the AHFS trigger. ONLY RUNNING TO THE 1000' MARK EACH TIME! Only 17 passes made since new.

How Long are you guys going to beat this dead horse?? We all know what it is, and how "under-factored" it is. So lets all grow up and deal with it. Also we're all pretty proud of him here on the farm.
