A combination rated at 500HP would weigh 3170 with the driver.
Not that long ago, what was considered a fast traditional 425 rated combination ran around 9.50 @ 136 in AA, which is a 7.5 class, at 3360.
Figure that a 6.0 class stocker would probably be faster than SS/B cars that win class at Indy, with ease. Probably as fast as SS/A cars, with a little effort.
Traction will be the limiting factor. Of course, they may allow the fast classes a 10.5" tire, too.
