Re: Frankenstein Bastard Car Sets NHRA Stock Eliminator Record

^^^ I agree but this is more of a reflection of NHRA not Mopar.Mopar asked and NHRA said yes.Mopar the said WTF and thanks ;)The Sportsman class has always been the backbone of NHRA and this is another example of NHRA not seeing the forest fore the trees.

OK, so is the NHRA trying to pull a nascar? Stock is stock, not something to invent simply for the sake of a record. If the common man cannot walk into the dealer and buy it, then it is not stock in my book. Yep, this is exactly why the fan base has dwindled to what it is now.

Isn't there already a super stock GT class for just such an animal?

That thing would get bitch slapped off the track in several of the GT/Auto categories.

Well yea ... but it seems the more liberal rules would allow it to be even more modified and fit in there better.

Well the common man can buy one, if he's one of the first 10 or so people with 100K in hand.

You're right, but, in my opinion, this is exactly what they wanted. Make a couple hero laps, set a record, grab some pub, and move along.

The Modified classes are farking awesome to watch. Million RPM sewing machine engines battling it out in a bunch of categories.
