When old cars out number the new car by 10 to1 i guess that means nothing, the people that have some of these new cars couldn't make there old cars run with the rest of the old cars, so they purchase a new under rated car and now there a genius, car builder, engine pro, and there upset when they get 5hp added when they should be getting 25hp/50hp or more.

Might be worth mentioning, the problem isnt with the person owning or driving the cars, the factoring is the issue. The long time it takes to adjust becomes very painful to previously Over factored or often factored combination owners. Not all racers can park one $50K car and instantly move into a $100,000 new car and become a winner in class.
An outsider has a better chance of entering and being big time since they do not have to sell a used up combination to have some money to buy the next car. |

Why would I still have a time slip? Do you keep those? I have no reason to.
Ruler, you are dead right about some of them. Not all.

I have it figured out guys, once the new car guys can't get old cars to run fast, out numbered 10-1, so we buy a car and become instant genius's maybe be we should line up and ask NHRA for 100hp because we all know if the older cars had any advantage then they would respectfully do the same for all of us! Maybe we should all ask the big 3 to please stop making new cars for our sport. I mean my 26 month old should only be able to drive a car pre1970's. I can't wait till 2020 to see what toys we have to play with! Espically to see what the old guys consider "old" cars then!! This is getting even better!!
