If you allow DOT tires and not do a radial based class it could be a high 10 second class with a reasonable turbo limit(67mm maybe?) and keep it to a 235/60/15 max tire size. Once power street went to 26x10.5 ET street class it got a bit fast for the average street cars. Also on DOT tires there is a lot less room for error so it's more of a drivers race. Power street was the most fun class I ever ran in and Im sure some of the guys that ran it back in the day would say the same thing.

I say if you consider it I would highly suggest doing a DOT tire and not radial based. I know a lot of guys, myself included, broke a lot less on the 235/60/15 M&H tire than we did on radial based tires.

When power street and the NDRA were at their peak there were 25-35 cars at MIR and Norwalk in power street.

I personally think a 10.0 class should be added just like fall nationals, true street is way too fast right now and you wont need a nhra license to run.

Go back and read what i said in that thread, i didn't disagree with 3pc being allowed, i said it was dumb to build a car that will be illegal and then bitch about the rules hoping they'll be changed. We need as little rules as possible right now so there are no excuses for people to come out and race.

As someone said before they should keep the classes from this season and just let them grow. By changing year to year nobody will build cars. I know i will personally get a car and start racing street stock if it sticks around as a solid class.

Yeah well whatever makes u happy...I still think 10.0 will be a good class to run in!...plus theres a variety of cars in index racing and some of them run low 10's at 135 or less!
