Not Ranked
Mr. Racer X,
I never have said I like the wedge 385 series engines over the hemi 385 series engine's, I like all 385 series including the 429 BOSS. All racing groups like NHRA, IHRA, NASCAR, etc... change rules that help out certain manufacturer's in the name of "evening out the competition". No, I can't remember the details of why Bob Glidden left the NHRA. The bottom line is without serious factory backing no brand can compete in any "major" racing venue.
As a previous member said earlier, the NHRA just changed the rules so the BOSS engine couldn't compete. I guess according to Racer X they did it because the BOSS engined funny car would be too slow to compete with the Dodge and Chevrolet boy's.
