No more 352 Ford's in E/SA.

Someday NHRA will learn the laws of physics--supercharged and turbocharged cars don't lose 3% HP per 1000 ft elevation like normally aspirated cars; they lose only about 0.5% per 1000.
I guess it will happen when NHRA learns that electrons flow from the anode to the cathode for the cut-off switch.

Don't give NHRA any ideas to put a Supercharged car in E/SA.This one was not.

No need to feel sorry for me, I know when I enter a class what I'm up against, don't matter if its 3 miles from home or 1,130 , you play the game the way it is an move on.at the end of the day me an my family can still take pride in what we built, lots to be said there. On to the next.

Run to Rund, Ford 352`s don`t have supercharger or turbocharger. Tom

Still fits in E after horsepower. Just has to add more weight. Any more horsepower makes it a natural C car.

4.25% makes it a natural C car, 3130/330 = 9.48. A convertible could still fit E.
