National Record Postings - Page 4

We may be wrong about the .5 under the index for record minimums.
I just noticed the SS/BX and the SS/CX class Record Minimums are .6 under the Index as listed on NHRARACER.com
I also noticed there is no listing for SS/FM in Records or Index listings.
NHRARACER.com, the rule book on line is still listing SS/FM at 12.5 Lbs per Cu In.
I sure hope SS/FM is still a class.
I did notice one listed this year in Nitro Joe's stats.
Could this all just be a clerical error?
Lonnie & Pat??

Good catch Mr. Smith.
Keep on,

I think there was an index change on /BX and /CX, the error was that the .5 minimum didn't get changed at the same time.

Hi Edgar No need to worry my son Tom set the Ss/FM at Maple Grove last year . He got the record certificate from NHRA . It was in Joe’s book but not on NHRA web site ? He set SS/BS last weekend at Maple Grove . Hopefully he will get a certificate soon . Bert Dawson Comp/SS 3185

Sorry about the spelling Adger

Adger Smith · 10-26-2023, 11:06 PM

Hey Bert
That is OK
Just think of me as "BADGER" without the "B".. lol
Glad to hear the SS/FM was still with us.
I got a PM from Dave Lay telling me that a couple of weeks ago he and Wesley were discussing the missing SS/FM info. Like I suspected a clerical error.

I attached pictures of Tom Dawson.

Thanks to Draginsights.com and fellow racers, National Records are going back in the National Dragster this month. Trying to make sure they are all accurate as well as the combo.

Did Tom Dawson set SS/FM record in 2022 with a 1969 Camaro 280ci?
And then set SS/BS record in 2023 with 2008 Cobalt 316ci?

The info on nhraracer.com is not very detailed and I'm trying to include year make model and engine.

I hope you all saw the new National Records page in the July issue of National Dragster. Thank you DragInsights.com for making this possible, as well as the crowdfunding of the racers listed on the page. Don't forget there is a 1/4 mile D2 Open at Rockingham in September and the highly anticipated Dutch Classic at Maple Grove in October. Class, Wally, and money at this event. NO AHFS at either so go set a record!

Thank you again Draginsights.com ! I only wish that I could read them. I never got my July Dragster!
