the 10500 chip combined with EFI killed the Hemi more than anything else, it's a moot point now but if they would have delayed the stupid EFI/rev limit one more year the Elite mopars may have become competitive along with AJ and kept it somewhat interesting with at least some Mopar/Camaro Parity.

Ironically, I remember they said they implemented the 10.5K to lower costs and make things more competitive.....The hemi's higher HP cieling was it's only advantage so...there you go....I guess somebody really wanted it to be Pro Camaro after all.

If it were me, I'd toss the Cubic Inch limit and go back to some kind of LB/CI formula, or go Ballz to the wall and let's see some production based LS, Coyote and Hemis or even turbo V6's, or maybe small inch DRCE and Hemis and even some mountain motors....whatever!!! And let's at least see who gets creative. Pro mod is at least interesting because of the variety, so get some excitement back in the game and side by side and let it go back to the late 70's early 80's style 'Wild West' for a few years, Heck at least that would be interesting. That era of NHRA/IHRA (from say 75 to 85) was the most exciting and fun era of all pro stock.

too late to fix now, the ship has sailed. I no longer care
