Default Re: 1965 BB/Stock,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,???

Pete,

1965 A/Stock = 8.70 to 9.49 Wt./Hp...........(Would have been changed to 8.30 to 8.89 Wt/Hp)

The A/Stock cars in 1965 were running;
A/S = 12.70's
A/SA = 12.95's

1965 B/Stock = 9.50 to 10.59 Wt./Hp. factor.....(Would have been changed to 9.50 to 10.09 Wt/Hp)

Also known as, the 'factory' general street-musclecar class

The B/Stock cars in 1965, were running;
B/S = 13.00's
B/SA = 13.30's

The 1965 proposal would have had the BB/Stock cars (1965 only cars) with a
8.90 to 9.49 Wt./Hp. factor,,,,

A 'dealer prepared' street musclecar, with a big-body car stock performance engine,,,,

Which would have put the;
1965 Buick GS,,,,,,,,,,,,,,, 425/380 HP,,,,,,(3430 lbs.),,,,,,,9.03 Wt/Hp
1965 Oldsmoblie 4-4-2,,,425/370 HP,,,,,(3395 lbs.),,,,,,,,9.25 Wt/Hp
1965 Pontiac GTO,,,,,,,,,,421/376 HP,,,,,,(3467 lbs.),,,,,,,9.25 Wt/Hp

All within a great competitive class,,,,with cubic inches, horsepower and weight pretty much equal....

1965 Elapsed Times,,,,,,,, probably in the 12.85 range,,,,
