AA/S AAA/S and Class consolidation
Heard this weekend that next year there will be a 7.5 and 7.0 lb weight break for the newer high H.P. cars and Fuel Injection is being consolidated. Any one else get wind of this???

Re: AA/S AAA/S and Class consolidation
Same as what you heard Troy, but nothing in stone, just rumors for now.
I think it is a mistake to combine the FI cars, why should they want to rock the boat like that? Sit down and do the math, lots of us with the older cars can go home if they do this. |
Re: AA/S AAA/S and Class consolidation
If this is going to be the case I would like to see 5 or more hp come off the 255/350 motor. I can't keep up with a fuel injected car that can tuned by a computer. I see that would be the only way to make it somewhat fair.
I remember when the F/I cars first came into stock running G/SA and H/SA and how fair it was then. So all the D/FIA will now be running G/SA since they have the same index. What combinations currently run in D/FIA? |
Re: AA/S AAA/S and Class consolidation
Jim, how fast can you go in B/SA? Bobby, NHRA has put 61 horsepower on the LT1 since we first came out with the F body! The DF/IA cars have to weigh better than 3800 lbs with an LT1.

Re: AA/S AAA/S and Class consolidation
JIM , you hit the nail right on the head, we can go home. The lower the class the worse it gets.

Re: AA/S AAA/S and Class consolidation
Woodro,
What about the 1990 Corvette,the 1993 Mustang, and the 1985 Carmaro? What GM cars that came with the LT1 have to weigh 3800 lbs? Were those the Caprices, and Impalas? |
Re: AA/S AAA/S and Class consolidation
Bobby, any Camaro or Firebird Convertible that runs DF/IA has to weigh 3866. I saw where a Div1 G/SA went 11.12 i believe on the brakes, havent seen a DF/IA car go that fast lately!

Re: AA/S AAA/S and Class consolidation
Evan Smith is the only Mustang that can run that fast. I believe he went 10.86 in SS/K at Englishtowntrim earlier in the year and just went 10.91 in stock this past weekend at the LODRS there.
Dean Cook II went 11.80 in F/FI at Indy in a 1995 cobra Richard Zink II went 11.96 in G/FI at Indy. in an LX body stlye those are just about the fastest stocker Ford Fuel Injected cars that I can think of. I appologize if anyone out there has gone faster. I don' t think the GM cars have anything to worry about there. |
Re: AA/S AAA/S and Class consolidation
I'm not picking on you guys Woody, I just don't think they should combine us thats my point. The darned AHFS is already enough of a joke without complicating things IMO.

Re: AA/S AAA/S and Class consolidation
A D/FIA 1990 Corvette went 11.12 at Indy this year. I guess what I have a problem with is that the FIA cars have the ability to run better in hotter weather since they can make adjustments depending on weather conditions. When it gets hot my car slows down a ton. If anyone has any ideas on how to tune a 255/350 in hot weather I would greatly appreciate it.
