Would A Drive By Wire Car Be Allowed to Race ? - Page 3

Charley Downing · 06-15-2011, 08:05 AM

1.80 low gear in a 2 speed trans and a big blower SS

2.40 low gear three speed trans and a small blower STK

CJ are turds off the line and then the blower takes over. There only 330 CI
Mike the CJ make all there power from 500 ft to 1320ft. Ask anyone that has ran one and they will tell you at 1000ft you don't think they are getting there and then all at once they are going by you.
any other questions.

Would the drive by wire, traction controle, run tracing, wheel counter, CJ 's be allowed in Super Gas?

Ford spent the money, dotted all the I's and cross all the T's, did the R&D, and bought the rest with cars and trucks.

Get ready to see them in the winners circle, a lot.

Bottom line CJ's are great race cars!!!!

Larry It's time for you to trade in that old cuda for a new DP or CJ. I really hate to see you with an unfair advantage. Joe Teuton can you help Larry out with a trade in program or something. If the fords and DP were so great they would have won more then TWO national events in the past three years. There have been more 1960's camaro and F body cars winning then DP and CJ in the past three years.

This whole topic is funny, I drive an 08 cobra jet for a friend of mine on occasion and have worked on it for him more times than I care to count. Ford must have done a great job at hiding all these counters because I haven't found one yet. ( so if someone can pm me the locations it would allow me to stop looking) lol. The car I drive is a stick car and I can tell you on more than one occasion traction has been an issue. Or is traction control only an option on the automatic cars? lol. If so, I guess I need to talk him into putting an automatic in it. May not be as much fun to drive, but hey the winnings and all the walley's should start rolling in. I'm trying to remember how many of these cheating cars have won National events. I can only think of one and it was a stick, so he didn't even get all the extra enhancements the automatic guys get. lol

I see Charley Downing said that two have won, so I must have missed on.

This is some funny stuff right here. People that do not have something, yet know all about it. Blower cost you power until they start to make boost.

Races won don't matter as much as rounds won, if in fact there is any hanky panky. You observe a CJ going three x.72's in a row clicking early, and you do hear helicopters....or maybe the hearing aids need batteries

goinbroke2 · 06-15-2011, 12:02 PM

Just the latest in the well known series of "chev should ALWAYS WIN and if they don't then somebody else is cheating" threads. Once the underfactored/misfactored/traction control/factory money/planets only line up for them whining is done then we'll have peace.

But of course we all know the only way to stop the crying is either ban everything but 69 camaro's or ban the cj's and dp's.

Whatever........but, but , fords aren't supposed to win! sniff, sniff

wah, wah, wah.

So I guess if you drive a cj or challanger if you spot drop, or run it to the 1000' your cheating, but its ok for everyone else out there? lol

As usual all the small thinker's think somebody is picking on their favorite car.

The general question was does the "drive by wire" give an unfair advantage or is it legal?

Larry asked a legitimate question and all he got was the same old diatribe about "you're picking on my favorite car", bull crap, childish.
