RUMOR MILL - ANOTHER NASCAR TEAM OWNER ABOUT TO JUMP IN THE WATERS? | Competition Plus

Could another prominent NASCAR team owner be on the verge of throwing his hat in the ring with drag racing team ownership? That's the banter making its rounds at zMax Dragway during the Carolina Nationals. If this indeed plays out, a technical space race could be in full swing amongst the Pro...

I’m throwing Rick Hendricks name in the hat on this one. Ken Black isn’t getting any younger (who is) and Greg has done a great job representing Hendrickcars.com. The other KB racers are doing well also.

Hat in the ring? Cat in the hat, Roush. I can only hope

Anderson said Hendricks would be at the races on Friday in Charlotte.

Hat.
Space race.

It's gotta be Roush.

Aerospace Engineering + Air Mobility | Roush

From propulsion systems to structures, rotorcraft to rockets, sea level to sub-orbital, Roush's aerospace engineers love to work in rarefied air.

Rick Hendricks was into drag racing in his younger years before his involvement in the Liquid Qtr. Mile. So he may be it.
But the Cat in the Hat also was in the Mexican Taxi business before NASCAR and space race.

Another Pro Stock (Camaro)? Yawn.

that's the spirit.

I would think if it is Roush, a Ford engine program would develop.
And seeing as how the Cuadra$' run ford bodies on 2 cars.

Doesn't Elite and others have Ford body cars?

Why are there no Ford engines. I plead ignorant.

Does Roush even know the firing order of a Chevy.

Zero factory support.

What kind of engines do the Cuadras' cars run?

 

[r2]

Zero factory support.

That's what I recall now. Maybe that will change.

I wasn't sure why the Ford bodies.

oh, I understand they are Chevrolet engines Ted. That really wasn't my question though.

I don't yawn at new blood however. that's all

I was asking because I did not know.

 

[r2]

I thought Chevrolet is the only option available. I don't follow PS much. I'm sorry, I thought you knew.

I'm confused as is.

Jack Roush raced Pro Stock for years before he went to NASCAR. Gapp/Roush was a major player with their car.

NHRA changed the rules so any engine can be run in any car ie: Chevy motor in a Mustang, etc.

I know that!

I also knew of his aerospace program. Marc put the hat on the cat, and it fit.

What does that have to do with me, or my post though?

I tried to paste it here Cliff. It didn't work.

NHRA PS entry list, lists the Cuadra's Fords as, Ford 500.
The Dodge of Prusiensky says Dodge 500.

I thought they all ran Chevrolet powerplants as the rule has stated for a few years. IDK
Someone will.

Frank Iaconio has been running the Cuadra engine program so it is certainly a Chevy engine. I would never put any credence in anything on the entry list. If I remember correctly the last person to work on a competitive Ford program was Jim Cunningham. It’s a shame he didn’t have much success. Tough with no factory support.
