Back around 30+ years ago there was a Corvair that ran IHRA Super Stock. It ran in the SS production class. If memory is correct it ran in K or L production. These classes have been out of the rule books for a couple of decades now, the slowest IHRA production class is now J. If anyone has a IHRA book from the late 70's or early 80's give us the info on the class. The best I can remember the Corvair was from up north and would come to the Bristol, Rockingham, and Darlington races. It ran tiny tires on the rear, I guess to get the ratio lower, it also got some wicked head starts lol. Don Jackson
