CLASS RACER FORUM - View Single Post - Totaro and Bogacki? Is there a difference?

To All Stock Eliminator entrants at the Auto Parts Nationals:
I have competed in B/SA for almost 4 years with the same Pontiac Firebird. When the HP was adjusted from 369 to 381, three weeks ago, I added the necessary 100 lbs. I was not aware that the factor had changed to 7.99 for this combo. I realize that this is my error for not looking at the classification guide, after the change and I am not making any excuses. On Saturday morning I was approached by NHRA tech officials and after a short examination of my car, I was advised that in order to compete in B/SA, I would need to change to Trans AM trim, or compete in A or CC. Due to the short week I plan to compete in A/SA at the Dutch!
I am sorry if this mistake has caused any inconvenience to any fellow racers.
If you have any questions, please feel free to stop by and see me at the Dutch or call me at 410-800-7317. I don't believe in hiding behind a computer!

There is a difference, Luke is younger and a much better driver.
