It looks like the Ram Air combo is now a natural D/S car. So C-E instead of A-C.

I would highly recommend that everyone look at their classification sheet before the first race.
After over 50 years,NHRA says that a 1970 442 W-30 was never offered in a convertible.
News to me.

3rd gen 1989 IROC Camaro 350hp Dish combo is now a natural SS/JA car, 1990-1991 IROC 350hp Flat Top combo natural SS/KA, 1992 Z28 Flat top 350hp combo natural SS/JA (Looks like SS/IA gained some more cars)

So how do we as racers get a copy of the sheets NHRA used? I would like to double check the math and maybe a clerical error. We are all human and make mistakes. If a competitor believes they found an error what is in place for a procedure to resolve the point of contention? What we don’t need are lawsuits.

I wonder if the SRAC could shine some light on the issue?

Larry all of the GM data is on the GM heritage site, https://www.gmheritagecenter.com/gm-...tion-kits.html I'm not sure about the other manufactures.

We raised our son and our car almost at the same time but together. We are very proud of what our son has become and how much progress the car has made. Both are family. Chris arrived in 1977 and in 1980 for $600 we purchased the Cuda.

NHRA we built the car to your rules and specs for the last 42 years. It took us over a year to run the 1/8 index. When we started to get close to the 1/4 mile index and just knew it would be an index runner next year, I rented a car that was in the Guide and raced at a points meet to get a grade point.

Hell what’s the point

You would think after a year of research on the shipping weights, they would have figured out how a Non-Ram Air Hood is somehow 282 lbs heavier than the Ram-Air version.

Herbie what a great site for information. Thanks. What I was surprised about that there we not any shipping weights for the L78, L 65, L 34, L79, L72, or ZL1. Stick or auto and with or without aluminum heads in the AMA sheets

I’ve reached out to my SRAC representative, suggest others do likewise. Looks like Michael Beard and all the other graphics providers are going to have a busy spring…I could understand the exodus from Factory Stock by several Mustangs but this is total lunacy.

Bobby has posted on FB about this, hopefully he’ll be able to corral Lonnie and even get a podcast with him scheduled. Think if I was Dwight I’d throw in the towel.
