Why would you like to see a larger tire?We do not need by any means another sanctioning body. I would also like to see over the line burn outs. Larger tire, an tend to think so too.

The class will be a legal comp eliminator class.can't figure out exactly what's going to happen with this class......what happens to FS? what happens to PS? what if it doesn't work? can it slip into SS or comp?
what if class is hugely popular, and factory support dollars are weened from nitro classes? what if factory support is huge, and other players come in; then it's all about brands
and selling cars again. why not contact netflix and really blow it up bigtime. the drivers would suddenly be more popular than john force.
They will probably wait until NHRA factors out the ford and mopar/dodge carsIf this becomes the new Pro Stock class, I wonder how many current P/S teams would switch?
If they still want to race I would assume A/FX is the closest to fitting what they are use to. If it creates a big enough buzz I bet sponsors would encourage them to switch. I’m sure many are excited to run something other than a Camaro.If this becomes the new Pro Stock class, I wonder how many current P/S teams would switch?
The reason Ford kept getting factored in FSS was the class could not go beyond 7.500 per SFI chassis specs or it would have been done.They will probably wait until NHRA factors out the ford and mopar/dodge cars
Is that how pro stock became all GM, just asking ?The reason Ford kept getting factored in FSS was the class could not go beyond 7.500 per SFI chassis specs or it would have been done.
Wouldn't they have to strengthen the monocoque chassis somehow?I thought I had read early on that this new class would be tube framed. I did a quick review of the rules and did not see tubing specs.
No tube frames allowed?
Factory sheet metal would be cool, but I would worry about aero stability. Not sure a factory chassis on a small tire 6 second capable race car would be a good choice from a safety aspect.Factory chassis and sheet metal would be nice. Plus wheels up about two or three feet on launch. Just my opinion but tube chassis destroyed pro stock drag racing and NASCAR.
