Default Re: $10,000 AA/S SHOOTOUT at 2024 US NATIONALS

A different set of rules than NHRA provides for AA/S?

So a racer could enter G/SA in one car and enter AA/S in a different car?

This is a great idea
But how many cars in the world fit AA/S?
Not many I believe

I imagine, that with AA/S, and AA/SA both having the same index (10.70)
that this will be for sticks and autos?

This shootout is for AA/S(stick only) competitors.

NHRA has zero involvement in this shootout.

Participation is volunteer and not mandatory. If you want to run AA/S outside the shootout rules for the NHRA Class Trophy only, that's fine.

This is not a separate race in a race...we will organize it just like the A/S & A/SA shootout does during the Stock Class Runoffs.

My brother and I are grateful for the friends we have made in the Stock community since acquiring our car...this is simply a way to thank them and revitalize the class.

There are no separate rules to run the A/S challenge If the car fits the class your in.

Just an example? If your shootout rule states only bias ply tires to be run in this shootout and some run radials. The radial tire car or cars eliminate half the shootout field! How would this work?

Just thinking out laud. This should bring all the heavy hitters back to this race!

Good morning to all,
Okay ,I'll bite - what would be different then the regular Stock Class rules that we already have?
Not that I've got a dog in this fight yet, But I'm very curious if the rules are any different, what are they?

Respectfully,
Henry Kunz 1534 H/SA

I would like to wait until the flyer is complete to give all the particulars...

With that said, the two main parameters of the shootout are as follows:

1. Both the Winner and Runner-Up will be subject to teardown

2. All participants must NOT weigh less than 20#'s under their A/S minimum(this will allow all participants to be on level playing field due to many of the cars not being able to get to minimum AA/S weight) Shootout Minimum Weight Stickers will be provided and verified after every run.

NOTE: Unless you are going to be participating, please refrain from negative commentary. This shootout is for a group in the Stock community which have given my brother and I so much. This media platform is the easiest way for me to reach out to all perspective competitors.

We would love to get as many attendees as possible. As previously stated, if any competitors have any questions, concerns and/or input, please feel free to call/text me at: 613.229.9582
