Well when I ran my stock 340 the best I could run was 12.4 n/a, for the cost of an NOS cheater plate kit and an extra blue race pump and lines I managed an 11.01 and would've cut a 10 if I did more than just that 1 run....move ahead 2yrs and my '69 Cuda 440 ran a best of 10.7 n/a, added a used Big Shot kit and went 9.96 which was my goal with that car before retiring.....neither of those times are anything to get excited about, but I would never have done those times so cheaply with either car, or at all n/a I doubt, ....I guess in HU racing where you have n20 or other power adders without any rules cars get real fast and it can get real expensive to stay with the front runners, so you introduce some rules similar to those I mentioned earlier but perhaps thats still a tad expensive?...so cut it down with even more restrictions for slower 11>10.00 sec cars, or 12>11, it can be done, just change some numbers, I see no need for only bracket racing to keep costs down, we all started TNT'ing for PB's which is the right format, it should and could stay that way, its whether the powers that be would listen to such classes being put forward and run them, perhaps its worth someone trying?.....here it just wouldn't happen, we are just dead set on brkts, its entrenched, and we think T-Stops are still neat....:sleepy2:
