What is the Most diverse class in stock eliminator?

stocker396 · 01-28-2016, 03:01 PM

Some friends and I were bench-racing and trying to figure out what the most vehiclularly diverse class is? Example: A/SA- Mostly Camaros, Novas Mustangs all big block with only a few others mixed in.
I am in E/F and you got small block Dusters and Camaros and Big Block Chevelles Buick etc.

Just curious what the make up is and how much variety there is.

I would guess F and G. You pretty much see everything there.

Just get a U Stock calendar. Until the broad based ford gift it was hard to find the same car in the class.

The lower classes, N through V definitely have the most unique cars. From station wagons, 4 door models, V8, V6, inline 6s, 4 cyl., turbos, etc. No cookie cutters in those classes !

From what I just saw, the 305 that's rated at 145hp, and factored at 180 should do it. I'm not sure about the legal weight limit for that class, but there's only three engines available for that car in that year...the 350, the 305, and the 250 inline six (which I think would make that car a V/S(A) car). Good luck if you decide to build/race that combo....
