Am I missing something? I checked out the rules in Nostalgia Muscle Car (NMC) and aside from a few odds & ends, it looks like any NHRA/IHRA Stocker, with a body 1985 or older, would fit. (Full tree with preset indexes: 11.5, 12.0, etc.) Nostalgia Super Stock (NSS) might be a bit different, but I didn't read their rules.
This is the link, but I can't get it to load at the moment http://www.nmcadigital.com/dl/rules/nmc.pdf Some exceptions - * No 2-steps, except stick. * No crank triggers. * No driveshaft sensors. * No wheelie bars.

Yep...there is the problem Myron...No wheelie bars in Stock. there is no chance I'll run my car without them! after we almost tipped over backwards at Houston in 2000 Nhra wisely allowed wheelie bars the following season.
Personally I don't care what they do. Either allow Camaro's etc in NSS Or allow wheelie bars in Stock. Either way the problem is solved...

NMCA is asking for suggestions. Naturally, some compromises would need to be made and there will always be people who are not happy.(Just like NHRA.) But a quantity of racers writing in with quality reasoning/suggestions can't hurt. Address their issues as well as yours. Perhaps they would be more receptive to reason than NHRA.

Also, NMC does not allow any engine unless it is a V-8. That's the reason my Bird cannot run NMC.

No bars is a deal breaker!

I ran with NMCA years ago in the EFI classes and had a blast. I'm thinking I will run a few races in 2017 with the El Camino in the Nostalgia Muscle Car class...should be fun.

I just emailed my friend Steve Baur the editor of Fastest Street Car Magazine the official magazine for NMCA telling him you are wanting wheelie bars for safety and he said he would bring it up.
