There is always IHRA if you live close enough. At least H/R (S/ST) runs for a championship and at ALL of thier events. The wt. is a min of 2600 lbs (200 lbs less weight to carry) but I havent kept up over the years to know about the wheelbase requirement.

Didn't Skooter Peaco just run S/St at Norwalk a couple of weeks ago. That truck is a PST look alike. Tony's is a regular cab and may not be that long.

I have a regular cab truck almost like Tonys truck, My wheelbase is 109". I strongly doubt that you would get nailed on wheelbase for sure in IHRA but unlikely in NHRA either. IHRA has only a 2600 pound mininum weight (like NHRA should be!!!!). And you will get treated like a real racer that they apperciate you coming and supporting them. I can assure you that at a IHRA national event you will never be pitted 2 miles across the street. I would stick with IHRA if I where you. Just my two cents.

If the wheel base on your truck was 125" from the factory then you have no problem. If your truck is an extended cab truck than I'm sure it did. The rules say 120" unless manufactured with a longer wheel base. Read the last sentence after where it says 120" and you will see what I am talking about.

Thanks for all of the great responses. First I will address IHRA racing. I live in california and the closest race is utah so.... On the wheel base I did read that sentence chuck but, an ext cab long bed chey s10 has a 123 inch wheelbase from the factory. I do know that NHRA can be tough on the sportsman guys. sometimes I feel we are treated as a nuisance but, that is a discussion for another time.

Thanls fella's

Yeah, but people who race like they have nothing to lose, usually kick butt. Good luck, big.

I think the 2800 deal is crazy.. people are still running crazy mph.. They need to rethink the weight deal cause there are alot of people with older cars that cant run 632's and go 175mph in super gas, but would be cool going 10.90 at 135...

I wish they would put a mph cap on atleast s/st..
