Pure Stock Thread - Foreign Makes

Thanks for the response. Still there is hope.

We need their young blood...
So the Vampire American cars can suck their blood.

The world has changed around us and the sport has to grow what grows around it.

YEAH NHRA generates the Class Rules and Specifications.

IHRA can do that too and know what to do...
Do a little bit at at time.

Contact European and Asian car makers tell them what the intent is and to send in specs.
Establish 15 - 20 cars a year eligible for PS with in certain engine ranges.
Few in each category V8, V6, 4Cylinder especially the cars built here.
As it grows the initiatives it will migrate to Stock and Super Stock.

Sure some of those Supercharged and Turbocharged cars would give our new American Muscle a healthy run for the money.
The Caddy/G8/GTO are Aussie designed cars with American name tag.
Many have Sticks in them to help reclaim peoples man-card (as discussed in another forum)

I do not care what manufacture you build for. Our American employees will get a kick out of seeing their products compete. The new American pride building a great car regardless of the manufacturer. They are coming here because of our pride of craftsmanshp and work ethic. Celebrate it !!

If anyone wants to get confused about the genesis of America Design. Most of our WW2 aircraft were designed and built from Immigrant Engineers.
Done a quite A bit or research and publication in the past.

Japanese Zero used a Pratt Whitney designed engine, British Injection technology, Bendix instruments, Ignition and brakes, Hamilton Standard Propeller, later Browning 50 Caliber Machine guns. All on License !!

Nobody has a monopoly of the sun or monoply about ideas.

This is about racing and opening up IHRA to do something that NHRA does not want to do.
IHRA has to learn to do some of their own things to attract the public.

Coordinating with car manufacturers will bring out more sponsors from Dealerships.

Our 60 and 70's era is over and done amazingly well and will maintain a healthy future.

Without new blood and getting over the prejudices drag racing as we know it is going to make changes anyway.

Just want to capture some of that new emotion, get the public curious and provoke a little thinking.
