Re: A/MP Record Holder.
We held the MPH record in 1986.. Harold Stout( David Rampys sponsor) held both ET an MPH after that.. I think he was first in the 8's. I can stand easily corrected but I do have the certificates for the MPH part so that I am sure of. Seemed fast then.

Re: A/MP Record Holder.
Dug up a copy of ND Aug.20.82 it shows Shioleno Coleman Alexander Wise 81 Chevy with the A/MP record at 9.19 150.00 set 3-82 at Baton Rouge.This is when M/P ran in comp. elim.When mod. ran it,s own class as of 5-81 the record was held by Reids Auto with a 69 Chevy at 9.41 145.86 set at Englishtown.I don,t know how long M/P ran in comp. till it was dropped.

Re: A/MP Record Holder.
Thanks for the info...Forgot that M/P went to Comp...thought it went immediately into
Super Stock. Just can't remember everything... Do we have an answer for the original question on A/MP record? Recall the Reid's Auto entry...it was a Camaro driven by a guy named Lucier...think I saw it once or twice... Thanks gsa612 for the info on G/MP...I remember when the record was 11.91...by Blevins in the Nomad...but that was ages ago. I know eventually it got pushed into the 10's...but didn't think it went that deep. |

Re: A/MP Record Holder.
IIRC, I think Tom Haner in the ex-Lambeck 68 Barracuda had it at 9.01 at some point, not sure if he was the last.

Re: A/MP Record Holder.
Barretts Capri can be seen in the background of this picture. It was at the Cajun Nationals seen here running A/MP.

Re: A/MP Record Holder.
Why did the N.H.R.A. ever get rid of modified production class?
This was some of the best racing I ever saw and I could never figure out why they got rid of it. Jimbo |

Re: A/MP Record Holder.
Many don't understand why they got rid of Modified Eliminator. Plenty of cars. More than Comp, which they kept.
