Are they going to accept the current 5.0 mustang in pure stock? Have a friend in San Antonio that may want to try his hand at it.

If aspirated most likely yes.
They just updated the Classification Guide.

If IHRA uses the NHRA Weight (3400) and HP (380) ratings the 2011-14 5.0 GT cpe is a player in B/PS at 3420 + 170lbs. (12.45 index) Locally here, there is a '12 5.0 auto that runs in B/PS trim impressively at @100lbs heavy. Only mods so far have been headers/exhaust system, DOT radials, air cleaner and a custom tune.

Kudo's the to HRA's for finally putting these showroom cars into the guide..

Agree, after looking over the current rulebook, and I hadn't looked at pure stock in a long time, a second under is easy peasy.

Hello all!
Had a great weekend with my daughters new family.
Epiphany is being called grampa!

I think Pure Stock is going to bloom this year.
Especially all the new cars Classified.
Have been pounding this issue on other blogs.
Seems the management has heard us.

Just hope IHRA keeps Pure Stock.....err Pure!
No new Springs or Cam rule changes.

Leave it alone and the Class will take its own course!

Hello all.
Been getting several emails about PS today.
Good questions too.
The new Classifications seemed to spur a lot of interest.
Answered all but wow!
IHRA has a market advantage if they capitalize on it
Hope they leave the rules alone!

Just dont forget to try to get together with Mike Baker when you can connect with him and let him know what yourself and others want Pure Stock to be. Try to explain the cam rule and how it will mess up the class without some sort of restriction.You sound like you are a good "Champion" for the class. If I can help in any way just let me know.

And to you as well Dan. We've been in Alaska for a week visiting our two grandchildren as well. Just returned home late tonight. Boy, it's COLD there! I did keep an eye though on the DA and saw it once around -5000'!!!

Happy New Year!
