I have a ton off pictures to post, but won't be able to until tomorrow or the next day. Have a lot of great wheelstands, thanks to Micheal letting me take from the track. It was a bucket list thing for me, so I will share with everyone later.
I'll probably post here or under my name. Butch8908.
Thanks again Michael.

IHRA Super Stock Production/E Automatic four-barrel. Kinda like Modified but with more rules. Pete runs SS/CM in NHRA.


Congrats also to Stock Runner-Up Bill Sempsrott, who made in all-stick final. Bill laid down a .004 package early in eliminations!

Congrats to Brad Zaskowski for the Super Stock R/U, making it 3 stick cars out of the two finals!

IHRA's version of comp cars in SS only they can run 2 barrel single 4 or multiple carbs aftermarket heads and aluminum rods, the original intent was to use left over NASCAR parts which are plentiful and somewhat cheap down south and have a economical way to run SS like crate motor started out in stock we refer to them as alphabet cars due to their long and confusing class designations any factory available bore and stroke combo is allowed, from there it's induction and cubes to weigh like comp. oh and they are also allowed to run those silly oversize hood scoops kind of a cross between old MP cars and door comp cars

thanks for explaining Alex. I watched this racing for hours yesterday and today. I wondered what the insignias if the car meant PDA. Way cool, lets you imagine up some cool combos.
Big fan since before your race which I own a copy of on tape, need a dvd.

A great event is finally "in the books". Didn't even have an oildown until today,,,too bad about the crash,, glad Tyler is okay. Thanks to Redman for his "camera expertise" this afternoon, and especially to Michael and Anthony for pulling this off as well as they did. Thank you to everyone who showed us wonderful hospitality,,even those who made fun of my wearing shorts and my Seahawks hat. I'll post more after getting home, but we've got a very early flight in the morning, so a quick dinner and hit the hotel for the night. It was great seeing all, my two friends had a great time here also, and are ready to do it again some day. I hope it happens.

I've been following Class Racer for years now, but this is my first post. I just wanted to personally thank Michael Beard, Anthony Walton, Nitro Joe, Redman, and everyone else who made this one of the coolest, most enjoyable events that I've ever experienced. And my thoughts are echoed by my Grandfather and Uncle, and pretty much everyone I've talked to. The competition was great, the track prep was A+, the food was amazing... I could go on and on. I really hope that another class nationals is in the cars for next year, and I hope that folks who didn't attend this year (for whatever reason) will realize how important it is to keep these events supported and ensure their survival. Once again, stellar job, guys.

Super Stock Production "E" Automatic with single four barrel. -2 would be two barrel.

This class is most like the old AHRA formula stock. Must be corporate block heads etc. In my opinion the closest thing in NHRA is Modified Stock. SS/AS, SS/BS, SS/CS.
