Thumbs up Carb can't compare?????

not to start a flaming war,but saying a carb can't compare to fuel injection is a pretty strong statement. I do not know how much racing you keep up with but NMRA has a class called Hot Street where the cars run NA big inch high compression Windsor based engines and inline heads,Ken Compton started the year off with DFI Accel injection and was running 9.50's and the occassional 9.40 making 790hp,since he has switched to a HP type carburetor,and Super Victor intake and has been running 9.30's since.

I am a fuelie guy through and through but saying a carb can't compare to fuel injection in a NA application that is a stretch,plus you cannot compare cost either.
