Bill;
I believe you are correct, maybe even 5.5 lb. I was talking to Bruce about this a while back and couldn't get a real answer but if NHRA intends to put the HP factors where they belong with the new factory race cars they will need to reconfigure the weight breaks or these cars will cycle out of the guide; probably not acceptable to Ford or Chrysler. I am convinced that there will be no FX class so this is the only solution IF (big if) the HP gets corrected. Time will tell. |

That's a 1 of 1 AMC SCAMbler.:>):>):>)
Seriously I just looked in a 2008 rule book. Quote: Hood openings and/or hood scoops other than OEM prohibited.That's kind of a gray area as the scoop was only available on the SC/Rambler.I would think it would slow the car down a tad being non functional.

How about submitting a reasonable HP on these new cars, and leaving the old cars
alone, we have enough enhancements that come with a penalty.

I think there is a 25lb weight hit, a 5% horsepower adjustment, and a .010 index adjustment just because......Age aint got nothing to do with it
