NMCA Jeff,
Are you also paying double if a max wedge car wins? How about runner up and semi money, is it doubled?
We have a 64 hemi and 64 max wedge car. Both are IHRA stock class legal, A and AA stock automatic. I assume that both of these cars will fit in to either NSS or NMC. Are your indexes half or quarter second now?
Thanks for your time, looking forward to coming to this race.

Jeff Day

Yes if you check out our rules for NSS or NMC we have a list of cars that are eligable for both classes. If you car is on that list and either has a Chrysler HEMI or wedge style engine you will be eligable for the double up money.

How about allowing a Hemi in prostock and doubling the money if it wins looks like if a mopar wants to be competitive in the NMCA we are limited to the index classes

Makes no sense to me. spend 60k for an a-990 type car so I can go slower than I am now.




but all your doing is playing with yourself.come play with the boys.no one says you have to go slower, spend some money and park the S & M car or stop complaining.

Jeff, this sounds great. We have a couple of each and will be there.

Is there an additional program exclusively for wedge and Hemi Mopars, or is this a "bonus" for doing well during the NMCA program itself?

Although mine is a pure legal NSS car, we have one that runs the CC Hemi class, and it uses a 14x32 tire, as most of them do. Is there a way those cars can be included?

Any info would be appreciated.

in order to be awarded the prize your car has to fit in either the NSS,NMC, Open Comp or True Street Rules. In NSS the maximum size tire is 10.5Wx31. Open comp is the only class were you can run a 14 32 tire. If you win one of these classes with a HEMI or wedge like the rules state then your eligable for the double purse.

It looks like my 63 would fit the NMCA class real well. I hope I can make it as I would really enjoy it. Ron
