I like 1/4 mile racing, but I think 1/8 would be better for this so the racing would be closer.......
So, will it be 100% Grudge Run What You Brung, or will there be rules?
If there will be rules, how about this?
Mickey Thompson any tire marked to 28.0/10.5 including the W tire any tire marked to 29.5/10.5 non W
Mickey Thompson ET Street any tire up to the 28/13.50 or 30/12.50
Mickey Thompson ET Drag Radial or Hoosier DOT Drag Radial any Radial no larger than 15" wheel diameter.
Hoosier any slick marked to 29.5/10.5 [the 18192 and 18175 tires are not legal]
Phoenix any tire marked to 29.5/10.5
Goodyear any tire marked to 29.5/11.0
......and something like this for weights?
Blower or turbo big block 3450 lbs. Nitrous big block 3450 lbs. Naturally aspirated big block with non conventional heads 3250 lbs. Nitrous small blocks inline heads 2900 lbs. Turbo small blocks 3325 lbs. Blower small blocks 3375 lbs. Add 100 lbs. Alcohol EFI and Mechanical Injection. Add 50 lbs. cast tunnel ram, 2 carburetors. Add 25 lbs. ladder bars.

I just copied the rules from the MakoTenFive website........
I don't think you would want that many rules for this type of race. If its going to be Mopar only then we have to be pretty easy on the rules or we will not have much of a car count. Don't get me wrong, I'm not saying those rules are bad or anything...just saying I feel we would have to be more flexible than that or nobody will show.
