Tom as I stated it has everything Legal as per NHRA tech! Does it matter what I say it had considering it's been to a few races and at everyone someone has tried to get the car thrown out yet NHRA tech approves the cat over and over again. I'm glad to see there are plenty of people not wanting to run this pink car heads up! Exciting! Maybe we should build a few more of these!

This is an option for racers with the three C's (class, cooth, and culture) and proper stem wear. So only distinguished drivers have them! Lmao

With so many combos out there why would you want to pick a combo that isn't competitive, is all I was saying.

As the thread goes, your buddy Bruce started the tiff about the hood and accusing us of cheating. I agree as everone on the thread that something needs to be done and not just AA!

Joe,
There are plenty of cars out there running that have never been anywhere near as soft as a lot of new stuff started out. People still run the stuff that didn't start out real soft. There's competitive, and then there's ludicrous, and we all know the difference. Some of the recent stuff has come up 50HP since it was put in the guide. That's absurd.

Again, I don't give a rat's behind about your hood. I don't care who started it, either, it doesn't matter who started what.

New cars are cool, and the truth is, I like the Challenger more than the Camaro, it's a better looking car and more true to the original. But either keep them all separate, or start them with a factor that doesn't need a massive adjustment. A car that starts off in G, H, or J, and within a couple of years ends up real close to B is a little excessive. No one needs a 20HP pad to get started.

Tom to answer your questions correctly I will double check the control arms for you. Untill I get back please know NHRA has considered the entire car including but not subject to; hood, control arms, axle, motor, and even the color as legal for NHRA racing in the class of a natural B/SA. Hey I don't make the rules( even though some do) we just follow them.

LOL.

A little pot stirring.



Kevin sold the G/S Camaro I was driving before the hood ruling came out.

My next ride will probably be a Chevelle.
