Grade Point ????

My only other option is to take my wifes 09 Mustang and enter it in stock, again will never come close tot he index, but should pass tech, can drive there, and then back home without the trailer.

check with your division office...I think the gradepoints acheived in another class can't be used in super street...super street can be used for other classes...but not the other way...

CBS, thanks, I am going to be using them in either S/C or S/G next year, but had some issues getting either one of the new cars done for the early part of Div 2's schedule.

I am hopeful that at least one fo the new S/C cars will be ready for SGMP, and I was already planning on missing Orlando, since it is the same weekend as the NMRA at Bradenton.

So I just need to claim points for the first two races in either the wifes car, or my car that won't run the numbers.

I did say that I wasn't sure...........so that's how all the guys running s/st can run s/g at Indy for the US Nationals.

That's it! My cousin ran Indy last year after claiming grading points in S/St. Rudy Matthews, Paul Richardson, and others have done it as well.

Good luck!

If you get your grade point in Stock, it will NOT count in ANY of the .90 classes. If you want to enter in any of the .90 classes, enter the mustang in S/ST and those points can be used in any of the .90 classes. If you want to run stock in any of the national events then getting points in stock would be good, but it will be a complete waste of time and money if your looking for .90 grade points.

I was under the impression that grade points counted no matter what class they were earned in, with the exception of S/St.

Looks like I will be racing the Mustang in S/ST at Bradenton and Gainsville, anyway. I am not sure if we have the motor sorted out yet, putting a BIG gear in it this weekend, and the freshened 306 is ready to go back in, as soon as I get the car back from the paint shop...

New power plant will be ready before the Div race at SGMP, will definatly be running fast enough then, and then some.
