I think 9.70s in good air would be possible these days for sure. There were a few A/B cars at indy that would have been in the 9.90s at 8.25 lb/hp, not to mention Jason Line in C - it would be fun to see his car in top stock!

Out of all of the cars at this past Indy Nats, IMHO Jason's was the most impressive..a bad fast Buick.

Indeed it is; but think he (or any of the D cars) can shed enough weight to get close to 8.25 lb/hp? Know the Hill, Hatch, Bennett cars are bad fast but sure sounds like a tall order.

I wouldn’t bet against any of the line boys should they decide to jump in and play in Top Stock.

I agree-as a former owner and racer of Buick GS models, getting a 70 GS down to 2850 within stock rules isn't likely

Are the official dates May 4-6 2018 Atco
And Sept 28-30 2018 Maple Grove ?

We can get a couple hundred out of our D/SA Demons and save another 125 LBs by recruiting a 100 Lb. driver to replace our 200 plus b*tts!
We would need the 2850 rule removed. Hope this happens sometime on the West Coast.
