There is no denying they make good power. Beeson is probably the closest to me body style wise. Beeson went 2 mph better than me out the back door. Beeson’s 185 and change to my 183 and change, and I highly doubt he was dumping it on the big end on those passes either. I would think Beeson’s car is a little more aero that mine so there has to be some there? With a little tuning I may be able to squeeze a little more out of mine. I think we are close myself.

Something should be done to offset frontal area or we will end up losing all the old metal/ 632/nos because they are handicapped.

well... here is really the only solution to a level playing field, when it comes to the more newer aerodynamic cars, -vs- the Old Iron...

Either a .004 increase in jet strictly for "old iron"...or...

a 100-150 lb weight break ADDED to the 75 lbs they already get, for a total of 200-250lbs....so Kevin should race Colletta,Schroeder, Boer @3000lbs-vs- them at 3250... I would be at 2750- 2800... Widener runs now at 2900 :shock:

...his 100 lb weight break for a "stock" head added to the areo of his car erases my 12 degree cyl heads

REMEMBER...we are at about a 80hp disadvantage in aero alone and to make 80hp when these motors already have a high volumetric-efficientcy...well...the 80hp just isn't going to happen, my motor made 1108hp last year after I spent $12,000...for 40 additional hp :shock:

I believe i saw somewhere you bragging that you went 7.40 at 66 shutting down at the 1000ft mark, and you want a weight break or a jet increase??????

...AND I CAN!

So have we come up with a good solid Idea on a rule change yet!!!!!! I think if we are going to ask NMCA to do this we need to get it going!!!!!!! or are we wasting our time, what are your thought's????????

Kevin made a good point to me. NMCA recognizes thatcars between 1950 and 1974 are considered "old iron". and that's the cut off. and the #'s prove that nobody in those years with a 632+NOS are doing very well. so it's time for a bigger pill. Looking at the stats, he's pretty much right on the money IMHO.

That's interesting, since that was pretty much the "standard package" back in the day....

I know. and this is why baby seats have become such a big deal now-adays and not so much in years before. You didnt have room for the baby seat with the tubbed out wells and the bottle in the passenger seat. So you just made do!
