Default Re: True Horsepower Classes in NHRA

Jim,

The HP rating that NHRA places on any combo is just a factor. Not the actual HP developed by the engine. It is used for comparison only. You can tell the spectators what your actual HP really is if you choose to. My car is rated at 295 factory and 313 NHRA factored HP and actually makes about 615.
