New Super Stock Class
 

All the talk of new classes in Stock,I missed the fact that there will be a new Super Stock class.


AA - 5.50 to 5.9

Do any cars currently fit this class?

A/C Cobra?

Jeff, as funny as that sounds, I know a present SS racer that did all the leg work for that combo. Was going to run in A and go after the hemi cars before they were segregated! Had a nos body located and a letter from Shelby himself.

As much as I wouldn't want to hear and see the uproar, I thought it was an ingenious idea…

Re: New Super Stock Class
 

HMMM. That story sounds really familiar.....

Re: New Super Stock Class
 

Although Id love to see that combo in SS, but someone would be looney, to want to drive that car... It would be like a jack rabbit bouncing around the track...As young as I am, i wouldnt drive it..lol

Re: New Super Stock Class
 

hell, i'm 56 and i'd be in it in a heartbeat!
biggest issue is footroom for me...

i've never drove an original but i had to do some work on a superformance replica...
a blast to drive (had a 427 roush sbf and tremec 6 speed)

Here's an article about the Gus Zuidema 427 Cobra that was raced in 1966.

How about GT/AA/A. Then the Big block Camaro, etc would have a place to run separate from the small blocks in GT/AA.Several great cars sitting because cannot compete with the FWD cars at 2600 lb. Take these to the even 7 lb wt break and they could seem much better.. This has been asked for MANY years for the separation....
Travis, you have the contacts, why not at least ASK for help for GT also.

Re: New Super Stock Class
 

I agree with Dick. We need a 7.0 and a 7.5 wt break in GT. It would definitely help with getting the higher HP engines in the class. After all stock and super stock have gotten some help in this area.

Re: New Super Stock Class
 

Is SS/AA a 5.5lb stick or a 6.0lb automatic??? Sent division office several emails...they do not know....waiting on clarification from CA.

Re: New Super Stock Class
 

I agree! There is a combo I would consider running in GT at 7.0 lbs. Wouldn't make a very good race day combination, but would be neat to run a tenth and a half behind the AH cars...

Re: New Super Stock Class
 

Currently,there is an A class at 6.00 to 6.49.That would make an automatic at SS/AA

Now,there is going to be an AA class at 5.50-5.99.That would make an automatic a

SS/AAA I guess.But a stick in AA is also SS/AA? All these "A's" gets confusing!

Re: New Super Stock Class
 

The last National Dragster that I just read now says that the new Super Stock class is AAA.

This might help with the confusion.So I guess an automatic is SS/AAAA?

Re: New Super Stock Class
 

The GT/AA camaro with 427 was 3610lb. Camaro wt run down to 2800. A light Camaro with the big motor would be easier on parts and this would definitely make a place for these BB cars from the SB FWD cars..

Re: New Super Stock Class
 

As for cars that would fit a 5.50-5.99 pound class:

The very rare triple-turbocharged, six-cam 231 EFI Oldsmobile Jam-Pak motor. I tried to run it in the Hemi Challenge at the 2006 Dutch Classic at Maple Grove. They wouldn't allow me to do so, but as you can see here, I showed THEM.



And, a 7.0 and 7.5 pound SS/GT class would be neat, for those wanting to run hi-powered engines (LS-6, ZL-1, Ford T-bolt motor, Hemi, etc) without weighing 4,000 pounds.

Re: New Super Stock Class
 

I think that the AAAA class would only be run in Canada?? A?

Re: New Super Stock Class
 

eh?

Re: New Super Stock Class
 

SS/AAA/EH
or auto
SS/AAAA/EH

Would 'merican be SS/AAA/YALL?

Re: New Super Stock Class
 

Only if you race in Division 4. ;-)

Re: New Super Stock Class
 

Y'all be nice. :-)

Re: New Super Stock Class
 

How about a class for all the top cars called, SS/ALL/YALL? Heads-up, run-what-ya-brung mountain motor class. Maybe that's an ADRL class?

Re: New Super Stock Class
 

Just make the weights CORRECT and start over instead of worrying about people not wanting to change their Lettering. Doing the Correct thing is whats important..

Re: New Super Stock Class
 

What a concept Dick.....lol

Re: New Super Stock Class
 

Looks like last year's SS/AA carburetor cars will be moving some stickers to accommodate some of the blower (5.5lb) cars. I don't see us running on a 9.40 index. 9.70 index now SSA/A. Hope the other carb guys notice before they pull into the water box with last years stickers.

I believe that for a $3.00 donation to the Shelby foundation, Mr. Shelby will sign the birth certificate of a mouse giving birth to an elephant.
