Doing some research on the 68 hemi darts and cudas built by Chrysler for the super stock class back then. Trying to find out what the rules were that required to Chrysler to build the cars the way they did.


Anyone here maybe have one of the old rule books or is familiar with the rules from then?

One of the rules at the time required the Cars Manufacturer to produce 50 or more of that particular model. NASCAR and SCCA had similar rules regarding cars available to the public. The sanctioning bodies were trying to keep Factory race vehicles from killing a class or category. A somewhat level playing field so everyone has a chance to be competitive.
