We are going to have a 275 race at MIR on September 14

I want to see what you guys think about adding the STOCK FRAME RAIL, LADDER BAR cars into the mix. They would be on 275 tires and have to get a weight penelty 100 lbs? 150 lbs?

1. 3100 lbs NOS combos and 2700lbs N/A combos
2. Stock Suspension, door car or truck
3. Small Block only
4. 275/60 Drag Radial Tire
5. Nitrous Combos only
6. Must have mufflers
7. Progressives ok
8. 7531 ok
9. Frame notch ok, no back half cars
10. Fiberglass ok
11. Lexan ok
12. Coil Overs ok
13. Mini Tubs ok
14. No wheelie bars

1/8th mile and a Quick 8/16 format with a Pro Ladder and Pro Tree

I talked with Kenny, Shawn Murphy, and Tim Savoy at MIR today and the 14th is a good date for them. Marc with the Nova was at a TNT at Colonial Beach Friday and wrecked the car but will be ready as soon as he can get some parts for a 1970 Nova. I also talk with Chris and him and Shelly Smith are good for the 14th and the 27th.

Working on that part.

2700 lbs I think and they can have wheelie bars

I thought it was 3000lbs, i dont khow how they can get them that light....

I'd like to see 3000lbs on a 275's. just my thoughts.

keep up the good work , i think this is going to take off.

I say yes to the guys that have coil overs and ladder bars just as long as the stock frame rails are in the car. make them add 150pds 3250 the more cars the better. Just my 2cents because i have stock sus. anyway!! Keep it a small block NOS class

 

[DRG RCN]

Theres plenty of sb nos guys out there to run this class. I like keeping it nos! JUST PURGE IT:smt023

We were hoping on getting some 3rd and 4th gen camaro's out there and for the most part they are well over 3200 lbs.

John,You should allow Blowers & turbos with NO water to air IC,just to see how many show up-never know it may help the car count!!! There are a few guys that run 8.50 index @ Cecil w/NO IC(But they are NOT on 275's- thats NOT a problem to change though)

Chris I didn't want to steal cars from the MSRA race that's being run on the same day.

That would NOT happen John,the guys Iam thinking of live in Delaware anyways & have never been to a MSRA race!! I don't even know who would show(For Turbos & blowers)-but I think limiting it will hurt-I too beleive this is gonna take off & the way this DR stuff is going I may be redoing my car to fit somewhere else very soon!!

If your worrying about their(MSRA)rules-let the water to airs in @ 3400lbs.!!! I'll come & play defintely!!!

The extra wieght in the right place could be an advantage to get the 275s to hook up! I dont see any problem with car counts the way the rules are.

 

[chrisevans]

OK-sorry-I just wanted to come race & have some fun also

I have never had 275's on my car-I've had the 295's go up in smoke around the 1/8th mile before @ 3400lbs.......so I doubt were I have my ballast would help on the 275's....Oh well

chris how come you havent had the car at real street lately?

 

[chrisevans]

I've been running(well trying LOL) the Cecil 1/8th mile deal mostly-Been having alot of reliability issues this year also....sucks

 

[tim lewis]

could always split the class and have nos cars and turbo/supercharged cars. that way both combos can run and the car counts would really be good.

why cant we just support the man idea of NOS cars only??????? sounds good a race for us

well since iam friends with john and spent the day with him at the track i thought id put some input into it.

 

[Suicidal Racing]

our real street program down here has n2o,turbo,blower and n/a combos.

we let the n/a cars get a 28x10 slick..

john already knows this seeing he was a creater of the class
