Dick,
I took it as this change made them legal. I've always thought a Monza was legal because they had a V-8 option. Reserved for foreign and domestic factory-production two-door coupes, two-door sedans, sports cars, convertibles, or station wagons with any production V-8 engine of the same make. Year of engine optional. Only those engines and/or bodies listed in the Official NHRA Stock Car Classification Guide are eligible for competition. Also see WEIGHT. Cars will be classified using the shipping weight of the body divided by the horsepower or performance rating of the engine used. Quote:

I'd love to see them drop the max of 250 lb added rule, so you could run an Opel GT.

So a 73 pinto fits SS/PA at 1938# with a 104hp engine....swap that to a 151hp 73 302 with canfield heads...12.83 factor, what GT class does that fit?....GT/J? 11.05 index?
Ahh, maybe I'm reading it wrong. Wonder what a pinto with a SS 302 would run? |
