Carl, I respect your view, but don't see things that way. I mentioned something like this years ago about pro stock and was told that it would never work with stock appearing cars, the cars would be too unstable and so on. The only problem was, at the time, my example that it absolutely WOULD work was the BIG RED 1969 Camaro that runs around 250+ and is steady as a rock on all sorts of surfaces, including dirt. "But drag cars are different" was what I was told. Then explain Brett Lasala's Snot Rocket Mustang. It runs faster than any narrowed, wedge-shaped big tire pro stock in the history of the sport and (at least the last one) was based on a steel body, rolled-off-an-assembly-line Mustang with 302 cubic inches. While Lutz had the crank out of his goofy looking "street" car every single day until he ran out of parts, Lasala made several straight runs without even a wiggle. My point is, if it were me, I'd much rather cut the wing than start changing billet engine parts.
