CLASS RACER FORUM - View Single Post - S-10 Chevy in SS GT weight math

Dragsinger · 07-27-2014, 09:13 AM

Racers,

please help me with the race weight of this combination

*2000 Chevy S-10 in SS GT

*327/300 @ 293 horse power factor[runs the 585 CFM Holley]

and

*327/275 @ 299 horse power factor[runs with a Q-jet]

I "think" it will run in truck class "B" which is 10.5 pounds per factored horse power less (250 pounds allowed for automatic trans] plus 170 for driver

So, is this correct, using the 293 factor as an example

293 x 10.5 = 3077 less -250 class allowance = 2827 + 170 driver = 2997 race ready with driver. I am correct?
