Wheelie bar rule
 

Did the rule change regarding wheelie bars past the rear bumper in S/S ?

Hi GMS1,
No change in the rule. I went back to an 2014 rulebook for a check spot and text is the same as 2024 rulebook.

WHEELIE BARS
Permitted. Wheels must be non-metallic. May not be attached
to rear bumper or bumper braces. May be 48 inches in length
or to rear bumper, whichever is longer. Length is checked from
center-line of rear axle to center of wheelie-bar wheel. See
General Regulations 3:6.

Thanks Charlie,

I thought so but I've seen several with bars well past the bumper. I'm assuming it's just not a point of contention with NHRA right now and I'm getting ready to update mine.

The amount past the bumper can be different depending on the body style as long as it doesn?t exceed the max length.

That being said, there are modified classes in SS that allow longer wheelie bars. 54 inches. MX is 65 inches.

I have a single wheelie bar for sale that came off my Chevy 2 with a 12 bolt if anyone is needing one.
