Default Re: Lets Root Cause the Detriment of Class Racing

There's beauty in simplicity.

For super stock.

1. Twelve classes. Weight per HP. 5-6, 6-7, 7-8, 8-9, 9-10,10-11, 11-12, 12-13, 13-14, SS/AS, SS/BS, SS/CS
2. Eliminations based on index. No dials.
3. Weight break for automatics.
4. Weight break for pre-80's cars.
5. Weight break for non-FWD conversions.
6. Adjust HP up and down until parity established, including FSS.

For those who say that It'll push people away, my answer would be why bother competing in a performance based class if you want to bracket race?

My car's about 0.7 under in good air. I drive a Ford. With a 20-year old engine. In Modified.

I'm working on my combination one part at a time. I have no intention of running out and buying $12K cylinder heads when I haven't even figured out what my existing combination wants. I would gladly take the losses in the proposal above until I can compete with cars at the top of the class.
