Chris,
To expand on Terry's post the SSPA-1 would be a 4 barrel carb, SSPA-2 is a two barrel carb. The classes with -2 designates a single 2 barrel carb, -1 designates one 4 barrel carb.

Thank you guys, i looked all over the rule book this after noon looking for an explanation. I apperciate your knowledge as always.

Chris,
You also have to maintain stock bore and stroke in production SS. You are allowed .015 on the stroke and .070 for overbore (it may have been increased to .075), that's the only difference between the internals of a production engine and a modified engine. Also, a two barrel combination is not allowed to have a vacuum pump. Hope that helps...feel free to give me a call if I can help.

This is a perfect example of where IHRA could reduce some of their classes. Make this one classs only for four barrell. This is one of the problems I think racers have with IHRA, you can pretty much bring anything to the track and they have a class for it.

I do believe that's what makes IHRA so popular is the fact that every one can get in somewhere. Unlike the NHRA where it's our way or the highway.

No. Please read the rulebook.

That explains the car counts at the two different HRA's. Every one is flocking to the IHRA because it is so popular.

I ran the IHRA when they were here but they pulled out so the option really is not there for me anymore.

2 bls? Sounds like AHRA! That is just a class to crawl to so heads ups can be avoided.
A 2 barrel carb has no place on a modified class race car. How dumb!
