Make a new class, Outlaw NSS.
Same format for cars with big tires
and transbrakes. That was easy.
Josh, lets get going on this!

Casey.....Casey.....Casey....

I cant believer you think its just that easy to bolt on a nitrous plate and go that fast....LOL

Those that have never used it always like to dis-credit the people using it to go fast. Im not discrediting anyone...Just stated who i thought had the fastest NSS car, and his haters jump right on that. meanwhile i really dont know any of these guys other than to maybe say hi. This site is more biased than i thought, because im getting PM's about voicing my opinion in here??? WOW ....
AND i know how hard it is to go 8 anything WITH OR WITHOUT nitrous...SO props to all the fast NSS cars out there getting it done while still maintaining that 1960's look.

Also accept my apology if you took my sarcasm the wrong way, just indicating that a lot of Mopar guys really are stuck in the 60's...in technology as well as mentally...LOL

PEACE

PS...Just re-read your post, all i want is for the "haters" to see that yes SSR is going in the 8's with just an Indy head, very 1960's appearing car. Thats all...AND for the record, when i get on the same track/pits as SSR im going to show him what a real street car runs like




Yes your right he just broke into the 8's he went an 8.97 in Nov in great air and it was 55 deg out...

Tony we are waiting for your dart to take out that 1200 hp TS motor next season... His car was supposed to go 8.20's from what I recall reading under his car picture...



He went the 8.90's with the light blue 65 dodge. The black car has gone 8.50's and still tying to sort it out.




Did you see it run 8.50's?




DID YOU? I know I DIDN"T see it either but what's the point? This is a nice informative thread and now the doubting and question comment.

Do I have to send you back into your garage like I sent Al the other day?




LMFAO Ang im not AL ill send you somewhere else my friend... Dont kill this thread its going good..."ANYWAY BACK TO YOU JIM"




Sorry Rob! In keeping with the Christmas spirit I'm don't want thread to stop. Thats why I commented as I did.
This is a breath of fresh air in an otherwise rotten world.
I'm going back to the garage now to do more work on my car.
On another note lets ALL meet at the Beaver in July so all the really fast NSS cars can duke it out- East coast vs Mid west. OK?
BTW- Who's JIM?




Ang you and your friends building lawn mowers now? I was at your shop today...LMFAO Check out the picture of the building bottom right look familiar!!!!!!?

What was the weight class and what restrictions did they have in order to run...?



They could run holley carbs,10.5w tires, trans break,heads up. They had to weight lbs per cu.in. based on type of head and manufacture. They weighed between 3000.-3400 lbs. The last year that that class ran they where running 8.70-9.00's

That was a NMCA class I believe. It would have been all the Manufacturers. I only remember the 62-65 cars in that class. The 409 Chevys would have been at 3000 and the Hemi at 3400. A guy in our club named Jess Jordan ran the class and I remember him complaning about the weight brakes. He ran 64 Plymouth Hemi.

Jess Jordan was in the early years of that class. He had a red 65 plymouth called the sting wich was the same car new that a black guy from detroit had original owned called the sting. Johnny Kelly then raced the car in pro nss. he still owns it and turned it back into a b car. It is still called the sting. The hemi cars were not penalized that much actualy a high rise fe motor had to weigh more. My brothers 64 car had to weigh 3300 lbs. with a 462 wedge. The latest car in that class was 68 cuda's and dart's. The pontiacs were the lightest and could never make the power that a hemi could make so the fields were pretty close. I thought the class was awsome to bad it just did not take off.

It was a NSCA class. We ran a Hemi 65 Dodge a few years before the end. If I remember right we had to weigh 3600lbs with a .060" over 426 Hemi. At that time we could run 9.20. There were never more than a handfull of entrys. 2-3 Mopars,2-3 Pontiacs,2 Chevys,2-3 Fords. Never saw more than 9 or 10 cars at once. At the end the 62 "409" of Jim McKenzie and Paul Adams Fairlane were on the top of the heap. Around the 8.80 range.

Doug you are right they were going low nines at the time. When you guys quit they lowered the weight in the cars across the board by 200 lbs. A 426 hemi b car could weigh 3350. Back when you guys were running Mancini's b1 headed wedge had to weigh 50 lbs. more than a hemi. Near the end of that class a ss/a car could run at legal nhra weight if they used a 10.5w otherwise they had to carry an extra 50lbs. A legal tbolt the same thing. In the end the rules got real weird when they started letting McKenzie run a big block chevy because he had the only alum. 409 block and couldn't keep it together very expensive combo. A iron block could not even competitive. And the tbolt guys started using low riser heads to take advantage of the weight break and then raised the ports like a highriser. Charlie wescot was very competitive in that class with his war fish car. The first year I had my dart i raced that class a few times.

There was a guy from here that owned a Harley dealership that had a 62 409. I believe Don Smith was his name. Jess said the heads and block was billit aluminum.

Jess stopped racing the class after he was critically injured in a Motorcycle wreck at Sturgis.
