OLD Modified Corvettes

[Gene Daugherty]

Love the videos - would like to see more videos of the old Super Stock and Modified cars, if anyone has some to share.

The audio really brings back memories!

Would it be out of the scope of modified vettes, to show Vinny vs. Kopp at Indy in 1990?
I have this video with Vinny B.... rolling into the water, in the semi's that is eargasstic!

Super Mod designated carb, LB/CU IN. wt break, only class legal SS chassis. (No FWD conversions)Stick or Trans Brake (No exotic trans). Even better would be SEALED Block and Heads from GM as Round track motor.
This is a FLAT playing field bring your own old , non competitive SS car and have cheaper Fun..

I have been E-Mailing NHRA to think about add Modified back into there classes..Tons of fans , cars , clubs and interest in this class.

Brodix spec head is the answer. No one's going to watch a sealed crate motor class. And the answer is let Brodix make the call on legality. Takes all cutting, and pasting out of the equation. Works in roundy-round. And lets all compete. They already have mopar, ford, and chevy heads. Limit it to a single disc clutch, no computers, no vac, internal pump only, cast intake, no external mods, etc. Heads may be angle milled, and combustion chamber polishing only. Saves pulling the head. Makes tear downs easier. Also, make everyone actually clutch, and shift their transmission.

Would a year limit on body style be acceptable?,,,say,,pre 1980?
Just thinking out loud.
