Mopars usually make pretty good power at the Grove the few times I've been up there....now whether they can get it to the ground....well

Exactly what NHRA wants. An all Chevlut race. There are mo other fans as far ad NHRA is concerned. So what does it matter. Sorry but I quit watching NHRA years ago... Rant over.

Don't know why anyone would be surprised.........I mean there are only 3 there total and factory support, as compared to GM is non existent. There is no incentive for teams to field a Mopar

I have ran MOPAR for 40 years too,,,,you haven't seen my name in any headlines anywhere either have you??!! Larry Morgan has ran about anything that has a brand name on it and he is doing something different soon too..

As far as factory support goes, look what happened to Warren and Kurt.
They are non existent

Something is going on because EE has been acting like she is the 2014 champion since 2013.

Yeah...
How is that switch working out for Nobile? Can't believe he thought he had a better chance of getting comparable power in the countdown from Anderson than he did from Johnson.

Two-thirds of the Mopar entries are qualified in the top half of the field, and I'm sure Johnson will be there before it's over.

That being said, those chebbies have picked up the pace considerably this year...

I still watch Pro Stock but I am loosing interest fast. Its not like the days of the factory wars as they are long gone and so is the Pro Stock car that even remotely looks like a factory car or has an eng in it with a factory part. I know thats the world we live in today with all aftermarket engines and all but it was nice when you could tell Sox was driving a Cuda or Duster and the eng actually looked like a 426 Hemi. I did love them days. Today to me most all of the Pro cars are like generic race cars as they all look the same and its hard to tell a GM from a Mopar. I used to enjoy routing for the car (Mopar of course) and not the driver when you could tell which one was the Mopar. But as was said the Mopars are usually still in the top half the field which means they have as much a chance to win as any Pro Stock car. Ron

believe "naturally aspirated funny car" is the class description you're looking for Ron.

Loyalty if fine, but Pro-Stock racing is a BUSINESS. If Mopar pulled the plug on AJ, do you think they would quit, or race out of their own pocket if another brand offered them a deal..........not likely on either count. These guys get paid to race and represent their sponsor. The money they win is chump change compared to the investment. All about sponsor dollars. Has very little to do with what YOU want to do. Has to do with what the SPONSOR wants you to do.

Who ever would have thought Corda would be racing anything but a Mopar, but here we are

Rumor has it that Yàtes salary was being paid by the lease money from Nobile. When he went away, no more money to pay Yates.

Ms. Enders may think she's the champ, but I bet there are some Gray cars that think differently.

I was told Corda switched because the parts just weren't easy to get. Another comment he made was it is much easier to tune from a laptop!

Of course they did, everybody started that way. I have pictures of Roy Johnson's car from the 70s, when my dad also ran Super Stock.............Modern racing, on the Pro-Stock level, and be competitive, out of your pocket......not a chance in hell

Hit it on the nail, we still live in the glory years when you rooted for mopar(didn't matter who the driver was). There is no "cause" anymore, money killed every sport, take your pick. I'll keep racing my old stuff that says mopar in big letters. Just dial in a number and enjoy. There will allways be someone faster and slower then me so who cares.And frankly i can't tell what brand the car is in either pro stock, funny car or Nascar.
