Default Re: Stocker rules change? Please

I dont think you will ever convince nhra to go back to 1955-56-57 cars in stock eliminator. It opens up for all auto mfg. to be listed not just chevrolets. It will be a nightmare. 1957 ford w/superchargers lost specs etc. superchargers were not allowed in stock till the new CJ cars appeared. good luck on getting this done but dont hold your breath to long. Maybe good avenue is to upgrade your car to super/stock and run class up or down from dad.

Exclamation Re: Stocker rules change? Please

in 1979 i believe they instituted the 20 year rule for several reasons.

1. was because nhra felt it had lost the manufacturers support of the "win on sunday sell on monday mentality" that fueled the stock & superstock campaigns in the late 60's early 70's. that this would encourage racers to build newer cars and therefore help enhance nhra's ability to market to detriot.
2. was facts that there was huge disrepencies in dealer options, and many specs were not submitted.
3. nhra was tired of the 55-57 chevy's kicking everyones *** and wanted some newer iron on the track

this rule was short lived and was revoked in 1980... ergo my 1960 chevy is the senior car in nhra.
