This is great, great news! Let's see a couple more turbo cars hit the racing surface for that class. It only took how long for them to catch on? I guess having a 255mph wind come by you at about the 1000ft mark has some racers curious......

There ya go! Thanks, Bobby.

No bullhorns on that car.

That rear shot reminds me of KB's "Batmobile" funny car.

As awesome as the performances of these cars are.... nothing beats a big ol' blower and injector hanging out the hood!

That definitely looks cool. I like how slick the turbo cars look. Very clean and aerodynamic.

I have heard from. Couple of people that NHRA is looking into changing the Turbo rules, so these other racers had better expect it!

I would think they would need to hire a new brain to deal with the fuel injection and turbos set-up... Big difference from a blower combo I would think.

I have to agree....nothing beats the look of a blower and injector setup...especially on the older body style cars

i like the clean lines of the turbo cars.
please, don't banish every innovative thought to comp. elim. class.
buddy beat the PS guys 20+ years ago with small block turbo power,
then continued to amaze with his buicks in comp. elim.

look what massel does with his 4 cyl. cobalt.

allow turbocharging in PM

I agree, even though the performance of the Turbo cars is quite impressive. I need Racecars that sound like Racecars, not Vaccuum cleaners!
