Just a typical A LS firing order. Pretty much everyone in Comp uses it. 4/7 2/3 swap or LS. I have used it on a few engines including the B1 and Predator stuff we have now.

Guess Andy got tired of the wrap huh. Always liked that paint job better. Dave did you see Chips new ProCharged Camaro in TS?

I asked Cook to send me a pic but I haven't seen it yet. Knowing Rumis it is top notch! His little Cobalt was awesome too! He obviously had zero testing with the new car, hopefully he goes to Phoenix with it!

Just for Comp in general, the class has been declining big time over the last decade or so. Only 14 qualifiers came to Pomona for the 32 car field. There was 11 entries at the Sonoma Nat. a couple years ago. There used to be a bunch of Pro Stock guys that would test stuff in Comp. I haven't seen any of that in the last 10 years or more. Every once in a while you get a T/S or ProMod car entered. I wonder how much of the decline is the indexes themselves? I bet if you were to build a C/DA or something that the index would be pretty stout by now and ultra expensive to try to compete with? On the whole it is an awesome class with ultra lightweight cars, wheels up launches and quick ET's. I wish there was more participation...

As for Comp cost. A few years ago I was told by a former Division 3 Top Alcohol Champ it was cheaper than running Comp that he had run previously.

Comp is not for the faint of heart. I have seen what those engines cost first hand. Randy Jones new Book piece was expen$ive... That's why I would be surprised if Mozeris went another direction. Stuff is not easy to sell when used or cheap to build new. Guys tend to either run a combo for a very long time or they are rich with more money than they know what to do with.

Comp really declined in 09 or so. It is starting to come back somewhat. But same players, new blood is the biggest issue like all of drag racing. Takes a special breed to run comp for sure, just like any performance based class it is a lot of time money and dedication to run their. My wife has been told by more than one friend who is involved in Comp that if I ever say I want to try it to have me committed.

Comp is definitely a cool eliminator.

I have gotten even more interested since watching it on All Access.

It can definitely be VERY expensive.

FWIW Larry Gilley is in the Stock Final in his Dart!

Aaron Strong made a few Pro Stock appearances and even got a W
