There's not a quarter-mile drag strip anywhere in Arkansas. There's not an NHRA-sanctioned strip here, either.

A shame, for sure, but a sign of the times. :(

Guess you had to be there...

Then came "bracket racing " ,where local tracks didn't have to be concerned with "rules"

Another reason why they should open up Stock Class to any vehicle made by an automotive manufacturer for the general public, available in quantities of 50 or more and distributed through a recognized dealer network.

The shipping weights are available through a number of sources as are the advertized horsepower figures.

But the engine specs the mfr wants published are not. Hhmmmm. . . Maybe we would get real data that way??

Wait a minute. Look who's askin' this question. Bret knows full well that car is not in the guide, just like my 2009 Challenger r/t isn't.
It's like Johnny Appleseed asking what color Granny Smith apples are!!

In all seriousness, I looked but couldn't find it in the classification guide. I figured the rest of the clowns on ClassRacer could prove if I was blind and/or stupid.

A answer from the Clowns on Class Racer. The reason it is not in the Guide is
1. They have not built the FIFTY (50) cars yet.
2. Until yesterday 3-8-12 the Real Program had not been anounced yet.
3. NHRA wasn't hood winked yet that there would be fifty cars built like another Sanctioning Body!
and until there are 50 cars built and verfied by someone reliable it should not be approved

I'm the clown that Bret is referring to.
