I guess guys the finally listned to all the complaints

Sport FWD New category
Front-wheel drive only
Power adders/weight limitations
"Heads-up" racing
Event winners only

Plus they created a PRO_FWD category finally we dont have to run against RWD cars in the Modified class anyore such as stephs..

Now at least my new car will won have to compete against all these modified guys..

koo.

so, when they say event winners only... they mean basically winner takes all right?? no second place, third place money??

 

wooooo hoooooo... just the news I have been waiting to hear!!!!

 

steph's car is RWD?

 

hes fwd, but he has to compete against rwd...yet still manages to hold his own

 

Steph's H22A sits in the bay like a RWD, but its FWD.
To this day,I still dont know how it works

 

Thats really great news. When the NHRA says a car in the Sport FWD Class must be Street Legal, will that class be able to use Slicks?

 

 

They need a heads-up all-motor street class....

Kinda like Battle does, Street Performance

Suprdave

 

Exact rules will be released in the next couple of weeks.
BTW, I hear Steph is previewing at SEMA a rwd car. Honda I assume.

 

ALRIGHT!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

This is THE motivation I needed to finish my street car!! Now that there is a class for it, there's a damn good chance you guys will see me compete nationally! I'm waiting with baited breath for the rules to come out...

they finally listened to US. Power to the people...

I might have something to look forward to next season.

 

a street legal, heads up, FWD class could get quite interesting. I think one of the things discouraging all the fast street cars from coming out is the fact that they have to run bracket and race against stock ford focus' an crap. not worth my 50$ entry fee. will it be slicks or street tire? street tire might get boring as the fastest cars in the class will only be running 12.1's haha.

 

hmm that sounds awesome!

 

ya earl,
on steph's car, same body style. rwd, Diff. motor.
I'm sure alot of people already know what motor it is, but I dont want to be the one that posts it all over the net.

 

Where do they stick the AWD cars? And are they getting rid of the street tire class?

 

twin turbo nsx to my knowledge (hey... thats what crane told me at e-town this weekend... so it cant be THAT big a secret if i just walked up to them and they told me)

 

HELL YEA!!!

I am so damn excited! Just need about another $1500.00 in mods and hopefully I can hang

 

so they basically outlawed eclipses? lol

 

haha... sucks for them! (throw them in with rwd)

 

Ditto...

Only a mere $5000 and growing until it's complete Hehe...Project: Will It Ever Get Assembled?

 

That is what they should do, I emailed them to see what the **** is up.

Anyway I'm very happy they made the sport fwd class that should be very fun to watch you guys. I'm curious as to what type of tire they will allow. What is the fastest most guys have run on regular drag radials not et streets or slicks?

 

I know how ya feel John..
Now.. this has put a smile on my face too.
eheheh.. I cant wait!
