When they pull all the $$$ and there are no more competitive Mopar pro stockers... then you will all be B****** & Moaning about no more Mopar pro stocks out there as you are watching a sea of Camaros and an occational Mustang.... No satisfying this bunch at all, you could do nothing but bemoan the Avenger that gave us the last two championships ... whiners the lot never satistied.
If it wins more power to them... I for one like it !!!
PS: am quite sure to be ridiculed for this but OH WELL

The car looks the way the main sponsor approved it to look, It's a Mopar and I'll pull for it.

The top end should be better than the Avenger and this is where I really think the Mopars were at a disadvantage.

The avenger won the championship 2 years running despite being severely outnumbered, never liked the body style but it's earned it's place, they won a lot more races than the cudas and challengers did during the golden age of Pro Stock.

It's funny how people complain about this car or current NASCARs. Yeah they aren't old school dealer bought cars, but they are still race cars; and it takes skills to lay down a 6 second pass or drive door to door 3 wide at 200mph. The same people would [Edited by Moparts - Family Friendly Site - Keep it clean] if their Ford, Chevy, Dodge was lapped 5 times or never won an event.

If Mopar gave me one, it could be pink for all I care.


Panther Pink would be a VAST improvement.


How does the manufacturers of the coolest colors ever painted on factory musclecars NOT have an acceptable color combination/paint scheme on it's factory hotrod???

Freakin' disgrace.

FLATulation Huh ? ... ... I will leave that UP TO some NewYackers and s from Joisey ....

ALL I can do at this point is post a pic of the RIGS as they are parked. ... I don't know who it was .. but some guy helping both operations(probably a Chrysler Corp big-wig) came up to me and asked very nicely if I would not take any pics of either car.

I should add .....

I talked to Mike Valerio .... the originator of Competition Engineering(was a BIG TIME acid-dipper back in the day) ....sold out to Moroso some years back. He has started a new biz primarily carbon fiber wheelie-bars and deals with LOTS of the pro racers now .... and dealt with TONZ of the factory Mopars way-back-when.

He said Chrysler was HOPPING MAD when pics were posted of the AJ car... he didn't know ...but I would guess that Chrysler wanted to be able to DEBUT the cars themselves .....

So I suggested to Mike ....WHY didn't Chrysler just rent the track themselves ONLY for the two cars and lock the gates behind them..... it would have been CHEAP for Chrysler to do that ... the rental rates are 1200$. ????

There is more testing tomorrow ... then Thursday thru Sunday is a huge Mustang race THEN on Monday the testing resumes ... thru Wednesday.

Tuesday and Wednesday should be HUGE .... ... there were only three PS cars there 2day ... next week I'll bet there will be a DOZEN .....

Just like last time I was there ...
