CLASS RACER FORUM - View Single Post - Newbie Qs: Do I understand this correctly?

Hey All:

Just trying to do a reality check on what I think I understand:

So if I read the rules correctly, the "natural" class for a 71 Dodge Dart Swinger auto with a 318 would be O/SA at 2893 + 170 lbs?

Some other questions:
There is one cylinder head option highlighted in yellow on NHRA's page. Does that have some significance, or is it just a new addition perhaps?

There is an additional carb for the combination in the footnotes. Is there a penalty associated with running the footnoted carb rather than the one listed on the line with the rest of the stuff?

How does qualifying for Stock work? It doesn't say in the rulebook. Is it based on reaction time? ET? Or whoever goes furthest under the index?

Thanks for any help

Steve
