Default Re: Pure Stocker Thread

question? i assume that IHRA uses the same horsepower ratings as NHRA for they're pure stock class
unlike Phillip i wish there was more IHRA tracks in the northwest area to run not only Pure stock but some of the other classes IHRA offers. I think the closest right now is Ashcroft BC and i believe a track in Montana recently switched to IHRA?

In my case it is a different rating for the B-Body/ImpalaSS.

IHRA rating 295hp for Pure Stock
IHRA and NHRA 299hp for Stock.

Check with Mike Baker..

I know my 1995 Mustang 302 is NHRA rated @ 213 hp.

The IHRA rating for PS is 220.

If you think I am anti IHRA you don't know me very well,lol. I wish every track around here was IHRA. Although I may give NHRA another try now that Div6 has a director that seems to give a damn about the racers, Frank Nelson is trying to save the sinking ship that Jonathon abandoned and I think he has the fortitude to do it.
Now what class would my 65 Hemi Coronet run in pure stock?.......

My guess would be the fastest, or second fastest one, because I bet that cars a hauler!
That car is one of the top three on my if-money-were-no-object-what-car-would-I-race, list...the '68 Dodge Dart Hemi, and the '64 Plymouth Savoy, being the other two!

Be interesting if IHRA and independent SS/S series invited the Pure Stockers from http://www.purestockdrags.com organization to come to IHRA events.

Some of those cars could be ready to buy and race and in showcar form.
All would fit right in and many are full up restorations.

PureStockDrag rules are almost identical to IHRA Pure Stock.
Only minor changes are needed if at all.
Many already have gone through tear down to validate their records.
These guys are tough, here are the rules.
http://www.purestockdrags.com/index....d=48&Itemid=53

Many of these cars would own IHRA Pure Stock Records.
Plus they would add a huge mystique what the originals actually ran.

IHRA (hint--hint) there is a whole Pure Stock market ready for you to invite...

Dan, unfortunately most of the car that run crazy times at Pure Stock on the independent circuit are just bogus car with over cubic limits with everything to make i make it go fast, such as lighten seats, removal of radio(cutting the front part only, removing everything of metal and replacing it with clone pieces of plastic to make it look like the original, a couple of them have crafted a 906 into a 727 just for the weight. No we need some way to limit the creativity of some.lol CR

^^ That sounds more like F.A.S.T. racing:

The " pure stock drags " races I have read about are the most legit pure stock class I have ever seen:

yeah, 2 different classes. Cheaters areeverywhere, can't help that tho, to a point.

Should get my Buick done for pure stock. what would a 1970 Buick GS w a 455, small valve motor be classified in, and at what weight.It is a tank.

Malta, MT has an 1/8 mile, and Yellowstone Dragstrip in Acton (near Billings) that was an NHRA strip has new ownership and is now IHRA.
