Challenger with 5.7 is 305 SS hp with a 3100 shipping weight.
Its power to weight factor is 10.16, which makes its natural class as SS/IA 10.00- 10.99
IA=10 x 305 hp + 170 driver= 3220 min weight 10.70 index.
cage, license, net, trans sheild,& 3.2/5a pants and jacket required
Can also run HA @ 3065 min weight(9.5x305+170) with 10.60 index
Can also run JA @ 3525 min weight(11x305+170) with 11.00 index.
No cage,license,net,.Trans sheild is required. Must have 3.2/1a pants and jacket
You can also run SS/GT.
GT/DA is(9.5x305+170) 3065 min wt with a 10.50 index
GT/EA is (10x305+170) 3220 min wt with a 10.65 index
GT/FA is (10.5 x305+170) 3370 min wt with a 10.80 index
All of these GT classes require cage,net,sheild,license and 3.2/5A pant and jacket

Check, those were the same conclusions/numbers I came to , pretty close, its nice to see it all laid out, the GT Classes......what would be the Advantage of running that aside from SS ? The FA would be the only one I would see as feasiable because of index, I dont really see the car running under 10.5 for the time being.
The cage we had certed, good to 8.50, the Pants and Jacket (hood gloves and stuff) all 3.2/5a, Net (RJS), Shield (CSR) and liscence, Super Gas, and Stock.
I think it will all depend on the testing....well go from there.
Thanks, its nice to see it all wrung out by someone else and get confirmation its right
