THE FRENCHTOWN FLYER:
Nice pass. Thanks

I wonder if they are legal for N/TF? or if changes need to be made to the powertrain.

JrFuel Hayden:
too many mags and no doubt too big of a pump

THE FRENCHTOWN FLYER:
Thanks Jon - I figured there were limitations on the engine components. It would be interesting to see how much it slows with legal N/TF parts. Conversely, how much quicker would the N/TF cars run with their engine?

One thing it does show me is you can put up big numbers without a long wheelbase chassis. That brings to mind my past attempt at running my 243 ci altered as a D/Econo Dragster. The next year I did that successfully the IHRA mandated /ED rails had to be longer than 125", effectively outlawing altereds running in a dragster class.

I was there it was cool, Richard Hartman ran the 4.92 and Kebin Kinsley ran the 304.xx to just barely take the top speed record. I was abe to get my heap in the winners circle there. So that was fun to race in front of maybe 8,000 people?
