A/SA 2010 Dodge?

muel7 · 07-31-2019, 09:53 PM

Ok, when we ran the car in Brainerd last year in SS/FA, that was the first race out with it. No decals, nothing. It was almost a year long build starting in November ‘17. As it was a factory built DragPak, it came with the DP hood and RT badge on the grille...hence the RT stripes now on the sides. As we are not running it as a DP, there is a factory hood on the car.

What am I missing here?? Am I that out of the loop. I thought Stock Eliminator cars needed to have a V.I.N.

Drag paks, cobra jets and copos don't have V.I.N.'s right.

Just so you know, I have been a part of the stock super stock combo races at Pacific Raceways for the past few years. I may not race myself, but am around the cars a lot and know most of the guys and gals very well.

No, they don't .Lots of cars around with no VINs .Olds Cutlasses from the 80's come to mind.
What they needed to be was showroom available to the general public..up until about 10 years ago. NHRA then saw fit to allow A/FX cars into Stock Eliminator.
Were deals made ? Were palms greased? Probably just another kook conspiracy theory ;-)

Thanks Mark for the info. I had forgotten about the Olds Cutlass from the 80's. I guess I didn't realize that there are others. More for this guy to learn.

Am I correct in saying the Stock and Super Stock cars can be build from "bodies in white" that do not have VINs?

How about if someone knowledgeable in the subject starts a thread about How stock is stock??? or something like that. Any takers. I think lots of info could come out. I know I would learn a lot.

Could be a can of worms, but could be very informative.
