Default NHRA Pro Stock

Dont know if most of you keep up with this but I just noticed Greg Anderson didnt qualify #1. He is the #2 with a 6.857 @ 200.68mph Vs. the #1 qualifer Steve Johns' 6.853 @ 201.10mph... But I bet Greg Anderson pulls it off tho.

It's a Bill Grumpy Jenkins motor that beat Anderson. Grump is an engine genius.

anderson will strike back.. he learned alot from warren jhonsons team. the proffessor is the man. right now i think he has the best engine program so if his car runs right. he will outrun everyone especially in the big end.

Greg Anderson mention that the low mph is because of the current chassis, so this car is suppose to get retire and he is suppose to pick up a brand new chassis from Chassis builder Jerry Hass by next event.....I think NHRA have the rest of the story on their site.

I just think Anderson is cheating the best...
Personally Im a WJ/Kurt fan, but definitely NHRA Pro-Stock is my favorite class in all of drag racing

jason line does not tune the cars anderson does he is tuner/driver line is driver/crew they all came from wj crew and took all their info from him.
this past off season wj did all his testing with bead lock tires wright b4 the beging
of the season anderson bought half wjs crew and had all his testing info
thats sorry but to still be going faster than the field by 5 or 6 hundreds he
has to be cheating and i will be cheering for wj and kj couse that team is
only testing new combos for next year couse anderson took the points already

no no no...then explain gregs dominance last season before he "bought most of wj's team" as far as i know the missing data from wj's beadlock program is just hear say. Jason line is part of greg andersons engine program as well as a driver.

FYI....Line comes from and gained most of his knowledge over at NASCAR..that's where Jason came from..not WJ's team...

Back on topic...HEMI's will rule once again in the future...MARK MY WORDS!!..Larry Morgan is starting to come around with some added power.

Bill "Grumpy" Jenkins is a mad scientist I think. Always coming up with something. His driver, Dave Connoly(sp.), is only 21 and rips reaction times on the "old" guys...thats pretty good.

eactly..

but also.. they been doing alot of engine testing on there own.. and its a fact that they have the best motors in pro stock right now.. if they copied everything from wj. wouldnt wj and kj have the same advantages? yes he learned alot. but greg is not a dummy.. and he can stand on his own 2 feet. thats why he continues to motor past everyone even when losing to a slower r/t. just like today.. congrats to greg anderson they have the best engine program in pro stock hands down..

I agree Gregs shop is right across the street from ours
I dunno 300ft away
Lets see The dragstrip is about 600ft away
The Horse power he has over everyone came from 2 places
His CNC porter " anyone know who it is" its a well kept secret
Well these NC engine builders have all the resources
