Default NHRA P/S going away?

NHRA revamped the rules a few years ago in Pro Stock, changing to Fuel injection & changing RPM limits and some other rules altering suspensions etc. When they did this it made the Dodge P/S engine all but uncompetitive. Allen Johnson soldiered on for a season or two. He retired knowing that his Mopar/Dodge was going nowhere . NHRA has always had a bias toward GM and Chevy in particular, The rule changes have made it into an all Camaro class which is b-o-r-i-n-g ! To try and save this dying class guess what they did? Instead of fixing the rules (to help other makes) they announced they would allow Chevy engines in any car make. How stupid! No one wants to see a Dodge compete with a Chevy under the hood. Theres one guy who shows up with a Dodge Alan Prusinski he usually qualifies but is always a tenth off the rest of the field. The "factory Stock" class is now becoming an exciting class. Cars that compete in this class are Dodge "drag pack"Challengers, Chevy Camaro "copo" & mustangs with a similar drag package. This class is the future, Dodge's Ford's & Copo Camaros are all competitive. Pro Stock is dying with fiberglass replicas of Camaros competing in an all but dead class. (The grandstands clear out after the last funny car goes down the track) NHRA wake up! You have nearly killed off Pro Stock!
