GN, I was refering to years past paper cars gemerated by Shelby and others. But now it looks like GM has axed the performance division today... Oh well, back to the shop.

GN, No apology needed. I didn't explain my statement very well. I think it is really cool that Ford is able to do this with the economic disaster. Just wish GM and Mopar had planned and had their doo doo together. My stuff has been apart for about 4 years rebuilding the entire car. Even with the major improvements we have found it will be VERY tough to run with the new stuff. Now with the car just about ready can I afford to go the a National event or even a Divisional?? Nope. I see a ton of testing in my future.

I assume they will be running Stock Eliminator in each of their NHRA Divisions and then attending NHRA events were applicable.

The CJ's are freakin' SCREAMING...is NHRA gonna let the sun shine on 'em for a while, or are they gonna get hit with HP in the near future?

[/ QUOTE ]Everything gets some factoring sooner or later. Remember, Steve Facchi ran a 9.71 at Atco last year in AA/S. I even think the 1968 Shelby ran close to that with a Mopar thrown in the mix. P.S. Isn't Phoenix a factored track, I forget?
