Re: Crate Motor Class
 

Mike, those boys must be all grown up now ! Hope everyone is doing well.,

Re: Crate Motor Class
 

LMAO! You obviously don't know Bob! Chopping Block?? Lets wait and see the Vegas Sportsman turnout. NHRA has seen what has not worked for IHRA so why would they even consider more classes?

Re: Crate Motor Class
 

NHRA has had FORD Crate motor classes since 2010 starting with the 352 and 428, They just call it FS. SMH...

Re: Crate Motor Class
 

I've said this before but here it is again, I don't think nobody is scared so save that lame excuse. I have some people that have crate motor cars that I consider to be good friends but they knew the deal when they went that route. When I built my car I did so where as to I could race anywhere I chose to under the current rules. Seems too often these days that when something doesn't meet one's agenda everyone else is suppose to conform to their way or its not fair. Like my boy Michael Brand said we don't need more classes we need less so there's a chance of an actual heads up run in a performance based class.
Go find the right combo and come race!

Re: Crate Motor Class
 

GT, CM and PS were not the reason IHRA Sportsman did not work.
All these classes already exist in some form in NHRA.
Lot of drivers had great luck with them.

NHRA can just merge/adopt them all under A-Z.
Like I said earlier..my car performance wise would fall in R/SA.
Add a few changes and boom you have a more cars competing.

FS somehow gets accepted and cannot be licensed for the street.
How is that fall under Stock? (another topic)
But you have a lot of them running adding to the car count.

Always thought it was sad you could not run a 455 Buick in a 1987 GS.
Until GT class came along yet NHRA does it in SS.
The concept of what the Stock Eliminator is has evolved a lot.

How you can accept the FS cars and not GT, CM, PS is not rational?
It is something else !

Re: Crate Motor Class

Re: Crate Motor Class
 

How do you figure ?

Re: Crate Motor Class
 

Dan you keep saying your car falls in R performance wise. Where does it fit in the classification guide?
