How about you can't run on or over the minmum weight of the next lower class? That might work

Shoe polish doesn't care how much your car weighs...

Todd, I'm not trying to be smart about it, but I'm racing against 351 Fords in my class as it is. I only have 302 cu. inches. The Fords have to weigh the same, they have 5 speed transmissions, 49 cu inches more and also fuel injection. I think that it would even it up if they had to carry the same weight to cubic inch then an ill run HP factoring by NHRA that deems them and others to run the same class as older cars that have been around the block. Just an opinion that I think others racers may want to look at.
