Default Street/Rental Car - Grade Points?

Has anyone ever entered their daily driver or a rental car to receive a grade point? If so, please PM me.

My car won't be finished until mid summer, and don't want to miss out on any grade points.



Thank You

Buy an old Cobalt and put a fuel check valve on it. I just happen to have one that will do the trick for you.

Bruce is spot on here, but remember....your results can vary from division to division. In some divisions , you don’t even need a race car . Buy a tech card, turn it in...and you are good to go....

The policy states that one grade point is awarded to the driver, and the car must pass tech inspection in order to receive a grade point.

All rules are left up to the Div Director's interpretation. They don't allow the purchase of tech cards in D1 but I have heard that folks have purchased tech cards in other Divisions and received grade points.

Mr. Light, you need to meet my good friend Larry Hill. Larry stands 5 foot 20 inches tall and his trousers have very large pockets. Larry was always searching for a copy of that WEST COAST rulebook. Sometimes things are done a bit different on the left coast....

MJ I have said rule book in hand. I was given to us on the first Western Swing.

Changing the subject MJ, how many points will you give me on the game Saturday, hint it needs to be in double figures.

Did that with a rental FWD car, NHRA required that I have my class designation and number displayed on the car in the proper manner and size, no shoe polish.

I can tell you this, it was more fun getting on an expressway ramp than going down the quarter mile with a rental FWD that ran in the 19's to 21 range.

U/SA now 25 mph at Walmart parking lot is fun.

I guess I'll be showing up with my Daily Driver 1994 LT1 Firebird for the time being.



Thanks
