Overweight Stockers

I have been trying to get a grip on this issue myself so that I understand it and don't have a problem with weight for my combo in stock....my weight factor is 12.24 which puts me in I/SA.....12.00-12.49 weight break.....I have a classification guide from NHRA that says to take my hp factor times the 12.00 and then add 170 lbs. for the driver for my "minimum" class weight....by doing the same for the 12.49 +170 lbs. for my "maximum"....I can fax a copy of this if someone wants one, I printed it out last Jan.....because the rule book to me is a little vague....like you guys are saying about heavy for the class, I don't think all techs operate from the same page, because I have talked to Glendora and they had to check with the divisions to find out what they have doing on certain issues I have asked about.....
