Old NHRA Nitro classes

OzzyMike · 01-28-2013, 08:37 AM

I am new to this forum, so I will introduce myself.
I am OzzyMike from Australia.

I have always had a passion for the Comp. Eliminator classes which I consider the core of modern drag racing and a link to the original hot rod classes of the 1950s.

A question for you; does anyone have a list of NHRA Nitro classes from the 1960s, which I believe ran from AA/FD to F/FD (?) in the Dragsters and AA/FA to B/FA (?) in the Altereds?

What were the weight breaks and the engine options for each class?

Thanx,
from OzzyMike

Welcome OzzyMike, I am not old enough to know this info but you may want to go to insidecompracing and ask there. A lot of older comp racers there that may know.
