NHRA Announces Changes to Class Guide

Fezzell just went 9:20 at 150 spinning the tires. Unbelievable wheelstands this morning. Can't wait for pics and videos....but to the point of thread, SS/E is now CJ territory. Danny was right now many of the SS racers will feel the pain...

Nice run.....lets hope he runs faster before the weekend is over. I wish him good luck. Just shows how stupid NHRA is in allowing this crap to go on and how much smoke the racers of these new under rated combos have been blowing up everyones azz for the last few years. Just wait until he sets the car up with a nice suspension, larger tires and some engine modifications and see how fast he goes. Im loving it.

Anyone know what weight he is at compared to what he was running last race in AA/S? Just curious.

Go Daddy Warbucks! Maybe he will be able to move up a few classes this weekend!

Indy, AA/S, 7.5 pound class, 476 hp rating (at that time), 3,740 minimum weight, 9.38 et @ 148 mph

Charlotte, SS/E, 8 pound class, 425 rating, 3,570 min wt, 9.20 @ 150

I applaud Fezell for running it out, and no disrespect, but I gotta wonder where he and others put all that weight in a fairly small car. Got to be a headache adding weight and then removing some and the welding that goes with weight bar nuts, combined with race schedule, towing etc...wears me out thinking about it....looks like he's having fun tho

Was told in tech that next year there will be a 6, 6 1/2, and 7 lb weight break, so Fezell will be back in stock.
