While it's great that AJ's camp has made some strides but,,how much has the other camps gained? seems that for the most part each team is in lock step with the other when it come to power and chassis gains. jmo

Good numbers got to wonder what weight they are at, or maybe what cube? Especailly given they have everyone covered by almost a tenth Nice to stir up some support but a lot of these testing numbers you see each year are just, that testing numbers. Just curious, I see these killer testing passes every year in the beginning weeks of testing then they are never seen again. At any rate certainly a stout pass for any NA 500" engine

why would they waste test time on anything that is not legal?

Do you really think they are going to cover those cars by a tenth or more?

Pro Stock teams test all the time with "mule" engines. It is not uncommon at all. I think I made the point of why as well. BUZZ.......Got you all to take notice did it not???

Not saying that is what is going on but you RARELY see those huge numbers manifest during the season. There is always a few passes in testing that become the "shot heard round the world".

Just sayin....He had most of the field covered and we will see if the numbers pan out. Says the DA was 700'ish which is certainly good air, but not mineshaft for sure. Do you think Larry Morgan's .49 will be indicative of the coming season?

it's not uncommon to see -1200' down here this time of the years. thats why you never see it duplicated during the race season.

Good numbers for sure, but they don't mean squat. Let's see how it runs when start running for points. My guess is they will look good at the start of the season and by the mid season they will be off by .05.

Jeggie may be a different story though.

How can you cheat in testing? As far as I know there are no testing rules for weight, engine size or shocks.

It's the same every year, you see some great numbers during testing and never see them in competition. It has nothing to do with Mopar loyalty, just facts.

I agree with AL every team during pre-season testing come up with great ET's but are rarely repeated during the season when it counts.

Yep, Al's right, point made.

But, it does make for a really nice press release!
Fastest unofficial pass in pro stock history, and so forth.
