Funny Car in Comp....?
Ok, so on the ride from Denver Im reading the rulebook for lack of anything better to do.
In the Comp section, it lists Funny Car.... But I cant find how/where it would fit. Would it have to follow the same rules as an Altered ? Where would say a 4 cyl Turbo Funny Car fall at say 150CI ? Its really a random curiousity question, I cannot figure for the life of me where a Funny Car falls ? Under Altered, Dragster ? Where. Thanks, this is really bugging me

Re: Funny Car in Comp....?
funny car is in the ECONO ALTERED section of the NHRA rules book---TURBO not allowed in ECONO---not sure if they will let you run the turbo in a FUNNY CAR body in ALTERED tho---rules on the bodies are pretty restrictive too--best bet check with NHRA Div tech guy first then maybe Bruce see what he thinks --Comp387

There was a cat from D1, an Achieva body, I think. A/A, just maybe in the last 10 yrs? Neat looking car, I thought.

What classes can the Funny Car body be run in ? Still "pondering" it....otherwise maybe an altered.... I am toying with the idea of a 4cyl turbo FC and would like to move up to Comp Elim....Be cool, fun, fun to work on.....just something neat I think, Ive got my eye on a 78 Arrow body House will be done by end of the Month and Dad has the DP under control now and with Keith driving for now.... So well I need a new toy And the DP has always been a bit slow for my tastes... So new car, new team of misguided mistreants and rejects, what could be more fun..... Cheers Chris
