Hey, everyone wondering if you could help me out. I've been looking for the NOPI Comp 4 rules. I've found the NHRA street stock one which was no problem. Also looked on NOPI's site in rulebook and nothing. Any help would be appreciated. Thanks everyone

 

check on nopi forums, supposedly all the info is there.

 

franklin
look under the power street rules they merged power street and comp 4 together

 

Yeah man Comp 4 doesn't exist anymore, so I would build the car for NHRA That is always a safe bet...they rarely change rules and when they do they aren't off the wall drastic stuff.

correct. NOPI no longer exists in my eyes. comp4 has been merged with power street. they are attempting to merge the comp4 cars with that class. look under those rules.

 

yup, NA cars are sheep to the slaughter in Power Street this year.

 

Thanks guys, I've been looking for all rules and couldn't find anything. So they're merging the 2 classes to power street? DANG! I looked in the NOPI forum and nothing about weight or anything. Do you guys think its best to just following NHRA rules? I guess a gotta call Mr. Woods. But if anyone finds the link, hook it up. Thanks again guys

jeez lol...

yeah comp 4 is not a class anymore.. Have fun with the turbo cars!

 

If it were a FWD only class, I would say a healthy progressive shot would do some damage to those turbo cars....but then again you gotta race the AWDs so it doesn't matter anyway.

 

take away the turbo bias plys, we're decently competitive. until then, we're screwed

 

true, and true.
