CLASS RACER FORUM - SS/D Thunderbolt in 1969 ?

Back regarding the original question in the thread:

It looks like the 64 T-Bolt became legal to run in SS/ as of 1968
(Before then it was banned due to being lighter than the 8 lb/CID rule)
But in 1968 it would've had to go up against the 68 Hemi Dart/Cuda.
So, nobody ran it.

But for 1969, it seems that was the year the 427 HiRiser was factored down to 450hp from its previous 490-500hp factoring.

That put the 64 T-Bolt at
3206/450=7.12, right near the top of SS/D=7.00 class.
And voila, there's a T-Bolt or two (the picture of the Ulrey car, and Tom Marsh as R/U in SS/D=7.00 class).

Now, the question:

If the 427HR was factored down to 450hp, that puts the 64 LWG LightWeight Galaxie at
3749/450=8.33
Way down in SS/F=8.00 class, running against flat-hood single-quad Fairlane 427MR's.
Sure the LWG is almost 400 lb heavier, but it also has a HiRiser and cold air thru the grille. Seems it would have been competitive just like the de-factored T-Bolt.

Anybody hear of a 64 LWG running in SS/F=8.00 in 1969?

Of course for 1970 both cars got the boot from SS/ due to being more than 5 years old, and at least back then couldn't run in Junior Stock.
