I have Bunkers car as a 69 GTO, RA4 factored to 380hp, same factoring as 1970-71.
3500/380=9.21
NOTE this has some implications for Ben Wolf's car from Spring 69.
Unless NHRA de-factored the RA4 from eg 415hp to 380hp DURING the 1969 race year (highly unlikely), this means there's no way a 69 GTO factored at 380hp could run B/SA=8.00 class.
Also, a 69 Firebird RA4 factored at 380hp does not fit B/SA=8.00.
And, a 68 Firebird RA2 only fits if factored to 395hp or higher.
Would a RA2 be factored HIGHER than a RA4?
Seems unlikely.
I'm wondering if the Ben Wolf B/SA=8.00 car was a Pontiac at all!
