Haha, come on. Ya'll have ruled the upper classes with the LS cars for the last 7 years or so, now it's time for us Ford and Mopar guys to have a little fun. From the looks of it, the 5.7 will be an A/AA only car in no time and the 6.1 is stuck in AA(I believe). So I'm thinkin B seems like a pretty good class in the near future. Oh well, either way were gonna have fun with the car and not get caught up in all that. Hope you and your family have a safe holiday weekend, see ya'll n Belle Rose in September.

Got a question.. Being I'm new to this class racing and all, can someone explain to me how a car gets "locked" into a single class... I understand how a AA/s can not go up but how does it get to where it can't go down?? Is it the ballast or added weight is too much??? Just wondering... Thanks Mack

If a car is lighter than a AA car to begin with. You can add enough weight to make AA but you have already moved up a class so you can't move 2 classes

This car should still be able to run A. The new weight break is a 7.77 which is a natural AA. However, the car can still move up one class to A. Now if this combination gets more HP and works its way to a weight break below 7.5, then it would not be eligible to run A anymore. For example, the 08 Cobra Jet Auto used to fit in A, but after getting Hp once it moved it's weight break below 7.5.

Well you wont have to add as much weight to slow the car down. How close is the car to being ready? When i talked to your dad at Houston it sounded like it might be awhile. Well have a good holiday and see you at the next race.

The 6.1 has a way to go till it's a AA only car. It can take a 3.25% hit and still be able to run A.

If Merryfield keeps flying he'll have the 5.7 in A with the 6.1 too.
