8.45/161.92...

Lol People coming in to try to kick sand in the face of the new car racers but then say new car owners demand attention?!?!

The CJ cars are teched going off NHRA stock/Super Stock rules. They changed up the weights this year a little bit and allowed tubular K-Members.

Looking at the rules and Jesse stating the minimum weight that would mean Holbrook ran it as a 13 with a 3.5 upper pulley. (10.0 index according to qualifying. http://www.nmradigital.com/cat/class...5-cobrajet.pdf) Which would mean that there is still more power left because the 14 pulley is a 3.375.

Holbrooks car is more as the factory produced then the other car. Smaller tire, more weight, larger car, stock suspension, less cubic inches, with factory cylinder heads…Just Saying

I prefer to be blown…but I dig NA cars too.

Funny how it's a new car thread yet we are the ones who can't take it... Comparing a SS to a STK'er new or old just isn't right. Funny funny funny just too damn funny!

Gentleman, if you would like to make a post about the new cars, and don't want anyone to chime in. You can kindly go and post in the factory stock section. Its just 2 links down on the main page. This is the Stock/Super Stock section. Go post in that forum. Problem is, nobody post or even goes to that section. I'll have to assume, that's why Mr. Kepner posted it here. Nobody cares to even look in that section. What does that tell you?

Impressive performance...

I just have a hard time with a stock legal car the is making very close to 1100 HP if not more... being rated at 500.. Love the cars believe me I'd even drive one in a heartbeat, but it takes the fun out of Stock when this is possible... IMO
