NHRA has created four automatic classes in Gas Dragster — A/DA, B/DA, C/DA, and D/DA — with all of the same pounds-per-cubic-inch designations as manually shifted cars.

With the growing interest in small-displacement engines with power adder, as common in the NHRA Xplōd Sport Compact Racing Series, for 2007 NHRA has added H/D (six-cylinder, turbocharged, four-valve engines) and I/D (four-cylinder, turbocharged, four-valve engines).

Within Altered, NHRA has created AA/AF and BB/AF for front-wheel-drive vehicles that have a maximum engine displacement of 153 cubic inches. Methanol is permitted. These classes are patterned directly from existing sport compact categories so that a competitor may compete in two different series using the same combination (AA/AF is patterned after the tube-chassis Pro FWD sport compact class; BB/AF is for semi-unibody front-wheel-drive cars and is patterned after sport compact’s Hot Rod class). Both classes are restricted to four-cylinder, four-valve overhead-cam engines.

Indexes for these classes will be released at a later date.

 

who cares we already have our series... why would you want to take the competitors and split them even further.......

as if enough people werent torn between NHRA, NOPI, BOTI, IDRC.... ETC....

 

I think sponsors would appreciate the extra exposure of a NHRA big show. To have the chance to run one or two NHRA domestic events would be awesome. I think those could be added to a racers schedule without taking away from the other events.

 

yes and on the west coast, we don't have that many races.
why build a car and not race it ? do to fact it is not cost efectieve to go east coast

Wow. Never thought i'd hear someone complain about having too many places to race competitively.

I always thought having it split into NHRA/NHRA SC was stupid anyways though. This isn't the special olympics, there is no reason why we need to only run against other sport compacts.

 

i think the pomna finals should be sport compact series and powerade series all into one week/end well thats my dream atleast
