Smile Ten Year Rule?

Maybe NHRA should reinstate the ten year rule for stock elim. like the early 70's.

Now that would be something to get worked up about.

Cool Re: Ten Year Rule?

IMO that would be an excellent idea! I hope they do it, talk about solving a lot of problems with one fell swoop of the pen.

I think they should reinstate the 10-year rule also - only vehicles 10 years or older should be allowed to race in Stock Eliminator. That would solve a lot of problems too! !!

Have a nice April 1st!

It doesn't matter with the 1969 Camaro, they have a crate body for them now, what's the difference between that and a body in white from the maufacturer? It's just the bending of the rules a little bit like Stock is.

1960-1970 sounds good to me.

To me, any car that's intitled to collector plates should be retired and put into Nostalgia class. Put the 64 out to pasture 6 years ago and once again its a blast at the track.

Yep, that would get rid of those SS/AH cars with one swipe of the pen. Noone likes to watch 'em anyways.

There it is!

Any cars that are 2011 to 2001 should be eliminated!
