I just wanted to introduce myself to everyone here. Not sure if this is the right place to do so, but i thought it was fitting due to the fact that i am building an nmca class car for the new class n/a limited

Just let me say WELCOME (even though I'm a .90 racer) to Class Racer <<<

Thank you very much. im mainly on here to learn on how to make my chassis more efficient as well. with our car, we are basically bringing a knife to a gun fight. i enjoy being the underdog. id like to go race some nhra races, but unsure of where we would fit in without making a ton of changes

Welcome

What are the rules for your class? Can you back half? Or all bolt on? True 10.5, or a 8.5 or a DR? Engine size rule? CI to weight etc? I like these style classes. Also welcome. I feel we can all learn something from all racing.

unlimited shortblock except for flattop pistons, solid roller cam up to .550 lift, any manual transmission allowed as long as shifts are clutch assisted etc..... the way the car is currently, is with a 308 cui small block ford, hyd roller cam, promotion prepped tremec tko600, 5.14 gear, 26x10 stiffwall tires, full tubular front suspension setup with coilovers. car has run a best of 10.41 @ 129.9 mph

you used to run Mean Street?

stick shift coupe · 10-21-2013, 02:50 PM

Yes i did and the class got pulled in favor of a more expensive class that they think will be slower but it wont be. Meanstreet was a low 10 high 9 second class, and n/a limited which replaced it will be high 8's low 9's. Sorry for the caps, i am at work

I dont see anybody going 8's, maybe 9.50's. and that would take alot of $$$'s and testing. You gonna give it a try?
