I see many of the cars with exposed transmissions and that is the only thing I'm questioning those Reid T400 cases must be indestructible Gus Yeah, I noticed that too...no blanket, no floor...maybe those guys don't care about having a grande inside the car with them? The thing that I wonder about is the big opening for fire to come through. If the trans goes the tin floor wouldn't stop much anyway, but it might keep some fire out if something happens under the hood.

Most of these cases are pretty beefy and my ATI even has a steel safety liner inside the case very close to the internals. Saying that I personally would not run without a trans tunnel. I am probably teched better at my local tracks than these guys are and that Reaper Guy scares the crap out of me and I would rather not be in the other lane against him

If I remember correctly, it was Kye Kelley who yelled out "don't nobody out-60-foot me" a couple seasons ago, so it seemed to me Chief was making fun of that after getting that monkey off his back. Read up or ask someone who was there about the Gasser Wars of the '60s: those guys carried on even in Dragster, and it was sometimes very funny. It definitely packed the stands and brought attention to some of the racers. It's TV, so you're not gonna see the quiet & analytical guys, as the emotional stuff is what they're after. All things considered, to me the OKC guys are more likable, interesting & amusing than the NOLA guys, and so far the Memphis bunch just strikes me as particularly obnoxious. Jeez, we're up to 8 pages on this deal!

If I beat a 903" pat musi promod engine w multiple stages of nos in a Camaro with a Pontiac engine almost half its size, I would dance and scream too. Only mistake chief made was not doing it in kye's face with his girlfriend lizzy musi watching.

Stupid... after what, 6 years? No one can make an engine outrun the worn out chief engine?! I call BS for the show. Take the rear out of one, stick in another (it fits?) set up the four link, and the wheely bars fit, adjust them, in what little time they have and he runs faster then he ever has. Then the competition takes out power! Get real, made for TV and yawl suck it up. Like Rocky IX

they said they made their cars the same on purpose, sounds like team racing to me, plain and simple (and smart). Pretty sure a @Shoeracing rear would fit any of the 4 funny cars.

think monte cleared that up quite nicely back in the day. sure was fun having his $.02 on some of these guys.... .... I had to laugh at Chiefs antics in the car when taking the stripe. Has anybody NOT "F-yeah'ed and F-you'ed" sometime in their racing? Good stuff. Of course we have. But the majority of the audience hasn't felt that. This is good for the sport. No one knows how it feels to win a race until they are in the car. It's about time they showed that feeling.
It may be ugly, but it sure is slow.
