Re: NSS Record Holder!!!! - 11/28/11 04:22 PM

I did not know you could set a record in NSS racing ? I have raced with a few and I ran in an 11.50 index class (had to dail every 1/2 second) and another that you have to dail on a 0 you know like 10.80 or 10.90 so I just did not know the system even has a way to set records ? I assume the Ford is just the fastest car running the class as I would think its the blue Falcon running with the 422 club ? Ron

Not really up on the rules, but I'm under the impression that different NSS groups have different rules...So I guess you have to say who has the fastest NSS car.

Mr. Yuck I guess your right about that it should be who has the fastest NSS car then...? But there are a few NSS clubs who do we go by?

Yes it was started by a few Ford guys who are serious racers. Also a few very nasty Pontiacs and a 63 Chevy. All nice cars and people. The only thing to me that throws the ball off a little to people watching the NSS cars from the 422 club like these real fast ones are that they are so much faster then the cars of the era they represent. I mean dont get me wrong if they have the cash and know how to build them that fast its great of course but its throws the perspective off some. When you think of a 63 Galaxy that ran 12's back in the day running 9's or 8's I just think the spectator might think they were that fast in the mid 60's. And of course the 422 cars are not the only ones going way fast it just that I get to see them them alot since my brother races with them and he loves it as they are all very nice people and also treat me great when I go to some of the races they are at. And I dont know if you could even put a limit on how fast they are now but it just seems that these cars were 11 and 12 second cars in the day and I even see some in the 8's today. Just makes me wonder if the spectators think they were that fast back in the day ? Ron

i know the keep'n the faith 63 plymouth is bad fast.....like 8.40s fast

then you have the cuda of sanders that has 2 motors, a wedge and a hemi just depending on where they are racing

Jeff Burris 67 plymouth runs 8.70s I think....all bad fast rides

Re: NSS Record Holder!!!! - 11/28/11 06:57 PM

My buddy Harry Schillings out of Canada is the fastest NSS guy I know personally, and he is going low 8's in his '70 Hemi Cuda...formaerly an originally AAR Cuda. He had a bout with Cancer this year, but he kicked it and will be back out this year, and we will be seeing more of his big Hemi Cuda...

is a 70 Cuda even NSS??? I only ask because I thought it was restricted to early years. I asked once about making my 70 and NSS car and was told it's too new... Aren't most mid-60's vintage?

You might be right, but I have seen it raced in NSS, but its usually SS, so I bet it depends on the specific rules. These days, I think tracks are trying to get car counts up, so maybe they let him in dunno, I would have to call him.

Sanders has been 8.48 to my knowledge. That was with the wedge
Paul (keepin the faith) has been at least 8.52, he may be faster but last i heard that was the fast pass.

Stelzer and white is around 8.80
McKenzie is like 8.70
Rossiter has been in the 80's

I have a feeling Sanders may be a little faster next year tho

ALL these cars my son listed are NMCA Legal cars in the NSS/FX classes. FX are the classes from 8.75-9.75 divided by .25 increments. Also in the NMCA you can run a hemi or a wedge from 64'-67' B-body cars. A wedge or hemi in 68' darts or cudas.
59'-63' B-bodies are wedge only entries. Also chevies, fords, pontiacs and buick/olds are welcome to run. See the NMCA website or the Dave Duell Classic web site for the NSS rules.
All of us that run this series would welcome any racer that would like to run NSS. There are many new cars showing up and many being built to run these races. Poppaj

Casey we need to see your beast in the mid 8's soon... We need your name on that top 10... But all BS aside 8.29 is flying for a car of that size and weight.... This is why I really respect the SS/AH cars 426hemi stock stroke iron heads and going 8.20's at 3200lbs...
Posted By: dvw

Re: NSS Record Holder!!!! - 11/28/11 11:57 PM

They're only a hand full that run quicker than 9.0. The rules keep getting more liberal. I for one am building a faster car than my old one. Using the original rules, no 4 link,sheet metal intake or 14.5 tires. All of these stated cars are fast. But to put it in perspective a 600 cu 2500 lb AH car would be legal. I do like the competition and no electronics. Never met a racer I didn't like in N/SS either.

Re: NSS Record Holder!!!! - 11/29/11 07:32 AM

Probably Frank's car followed by one of Pickett's cars. I think the wagon is the faster of the two Pontiacs right now. Jim Pickett told me Mopar racers have no excuse because the best heads you can get for a Pontiac will flow no better than a 440-1. The best FE stuff isn't any better.
Me, i'll just stick with my 10.0 car for the foreseeable future. I'm too good at breaking stuff as it is.

Re: NSS Record Holder!!!! - 12/01/11 03:37 AM

They are both around 2500 lb IIRC. I could ask him. Lucky's did the chassis on both, beautiful work. The wagon has been low 8.30s, has more left in it. was running 7.90's IIRC with a non NSS legal kauffman head motor. The sedan has been 8.40s or 50s. Both run G-force 5 speeds. You have to see them in person, I have rarely seen cars as nice.

NSS Really has very little restrictions....... Any cubes, wt, compression,valve sizes,heads mods are not controlled and carb rules are liberal...... It is not regulated enough for evaluating performance to regulated specs, like NHRA/IHRA Stock/SS. The cars are cool and the series is good........
Posted By: JAKE68

Re: NSS Record Holder!!!! - 12/01/11 10:47 PM

It would be hard to say who has the fastest nss car because there are different organizations with some different rules. Nss was started back in the 80's by the midwest nostalgia association. Then nmca adapted their rules and made them a class for them to race. Latter nsca did the same. Most nss rules still follow those same rules. Then 422 comes along with some very fast cars and wanted nmca and nsca to change the rules to fit some thier cars that did not fit. They did not have intakes carbs and had large tires. Since that did not happen they started their own series. Which is fine but everyone else was follwing different rules. If you look at who is fast that follows the nmca rules you find that there are a few that have gone fast. Paul Habar 63 wedge car went something like 8.60's Bill hombrick's 64 hemi car has gone 8.80's I have gone 8.90's and I think popj went 8.90's and I think ssr has now gone 8.90's and there may be a few that I missed. Im sure someone can chime in on that. In regards to that pontiac wagon I dont think that could fall into any nss class not even pro nostalgia which was a heads up class that was cu.in. to weight factored class and the rules where alittle easier. Hope this helps. Jake

Man, I was second in line to buy that car before Orlando got it. I was a little short on cash, and was skurrying around the show to get some more !! Glad he got it. He really loved racing it, and took great care of it. Looks like you'll be racing it.. Nice and congrats.. I think Sanders Cuda ( Husslin Hoosier)will be top of the food chain for Mopars next year. They never really fit into a class last year to really stretch it's legs. Like Josh said, depends what engine they choose to show up in..

with what Jake is saying
But my :
I run with a few NSS groups throughout the year.
I'm not the fastest car and never will be. I do it to relive the "golden age" of drag racing when the factories were involved and the "Win on Sunday- sell on Monday" rule applied.
It's all about the period correct looking aspect of the cars. That is what brings 54 cars for 1st round at Beaver Springs to the forefront and fills the stands. Most folks are of the 60's generation running these cars but a few "young guns" are keeping the era alive. So when the cars are on track the fans don't care what the rules are- they just enjoy watching dinosaurs fly.

Hey Mike C,
I don't belive anyone who has a tube chassis 63 with a hemi in it should even have an opnion on NSS cars. Stick to test-tune passes with your club.

I dont know why you all are arguing about it. Rules are rules and Paul fits the rules for NSS and im sure you could too mike with a hood scoop change. How about you all bring them to the duell classic in beech bend or at the monster in indy and we will settle this up.

I want to rematch you Paul (in Sanders car). The last time we raced he went into a big wheelstand and went towards the wall. Your guys cars are neck and neck would be an awesome race. Also just announced NMCA has an 8.50 index now...

I am betting someone runs a 30 this year in that series...

Will they have a NSS class at Monster Indy? If so who's rules are they going to go by? The only issue I will have is rear tires other then that I believe my car will fit right in there with the rest of them.... What do you think?

Re: NSS Record Holder!!!! - 12/05/11 08:55 PM

They follow NMCA rules, so you would have to change tires. If we do not have Lens car back together after I crashed it in september I'll put some 10.5x31w's on my ss/ah car and race that in nss. Jake. ps first time out with the black car ssr went some 8.50's as i recall.
Posted By: poppaj

Re: NSS Record Holder!!!! - 12/05/11 11:24 PM

Like Jake says, just put on some 10.5x33's almost as big as the tires you have but legal. Also no trans brakes or air shifters. That car looks great! poppaj

That car went 8.70's I heard... And that car is not a NSS car the only thing NSS on that are the window decals... We are talking NSS here... Where are you getting your info from because he never had a time clock up when he ran that car the first time...

Hey Rob,
Your 65' still has torsion bar front suspension correct? Also I was informed by another racer that the NMCA rules commitee was listening to opinions on some new rule ideas, one was letting 8.50-9.00 run up to a 14x32 tire. They are trying to get more NHRA/IHRA Super stock cars in the mix like thunderbolts, 64'-67' B Bodies and the AH cudas and darts. Think about it there are a lot of cars that this would make legal. poppaj

A lot of 8 second wanabee's (including me). I don't know all the quick guys. But I do know that Paul,Poppa J,& Jake have been working on it for a while. It's not as easy as it looks. Also not cheap. I have to believe many of these cars have 75k + invested. That's a lot of coin for a $1500 to win index class. How many cars have won an event at 9.25 or quicker in N/SS? That's my goal. Doin on the cheap as well. We will see.

Posted By: poppaj

Re: NSS Record Holder!!!! - 12/06/11 04:58 AM

Hi Doug,
Your Car is looking great As far as winners running 9.25 or quicker, I know Paul won a NMCA race dialed at 9.00. Curt Neighbor and Barry Camp at 9.25. Jake won the Friday race at Norwalk dialed at 9.00. 422 motorsports circuit has had some 8 second winners but their rules and dail-in system is quite a bit more liberal. Most of the quick cars in that circuit are not NMCA legal. I think there were a bunch more 9 second cars last year. I know there will be a bunch more for the 2012 season. I think about everybody is looking to move up to a faster class, 10.0 class last year was generally the biggest class where a couple of years ago most of the time 11.0 was the biggest. Should be a fun year for all next year poppaj

Someone said that Ford was real light though...

At 3200lbs it would take about 1200 hp to run 8.20s... That considering all the stars are in line..

The falcon had a injected SOHC cammer motor in it the last time I saw it run. It was very quick 8.40's probily went 20's at a sea level track like Atco I would say. It had alumium interior and 14x32 tires. I would bet by looking at it weight was probily 2600-2700# with driver.

Re: NSS Record Holder!!!! - 12/06/11 02:29 PM

It no longer runs the cammer. It runs a 2x4 wedge FE and has for the last few years.

In my opinion NSS should be limited to a 10.5 tire. If the car was originally a leaf spring car then it should stay that way also. All should be required to run multiple carbs, big blocks and NO pony cars(except '68 Hemi A-bodies)!

I know Tank well, his brother and him build some nice race cars. It indeed went 8.50's with a
604 FHO hemi. I almost bought the red 64' Dodge they built, it was a beautiful car as well. It is in Michigan now, can't remember the guy's name he hangs our with Bob O. and Gary.
Tank has a 67' Coronet hemi super stocker for sale now on racing junk that is sweet also and priced right. poppaj Also can't wait to see Gary's AH car run as well.

Lightest Old B body I have personally seen and checked out was Tank CrossWhites 64 Plymouth a few years back. Im wanting to say it was in the 2600-2700 lbs range, but not sure.
It ran 8.50's in the heat BTW and looked amazing.





How is that car so light,aluminum nose,doors and corning??




Glass front end, glass doors. Plexi side glass. Moly cage. thin bumpers. Aluminum bumper brackets, goes on and on. every pound adds up. Aluminum block and heads.

Getting re-energized on the project. Have almost all the long lead time engine parts. Hope to have it done for the warmer months.

A lot of 8 second wanabee's (including me). I don't know all the quick guys. But I do know that Paul,Poppa J,& Jake have been working on it for a while. It's not as easy as it looks. Also not cheap. I have to believe many of these cars have 75k + invested. That's a lot of coin for a $1500 to win index class. How many cars have won an event at 9.25 or quicker in N/SS? That's my goal. Doin on the cheap as well. We will see.
Doug




Thats going to be one nice looking car when its done.. I like the paint choice...

PoppaJ whats your car weigh with you in it? And whats the weight limit for NMCA Rules 3200lbs?




Rob,
Weight is not a tech item...They will not allow excessive gutting like dashes, inner fenders or changes that change the look a bunch. Our car weighs 3680 with Casey in it. Plus we usally have 100# in the weight box on top of that. We still have full bench seat interior, all steel except hood and bumpers poppaj




Why did you add another 100lbs? Damn that car runs good for that weight...

PoppaJ I have a nice set of seats for your car...






Those are nice seats
Weight was to slow down to run 9.75 car is very consistant at that dial-in.
We are stepping it up for next year will probily run A/FX (9.25) WE still run a true 10.5x29.5 slick as well, rear wheel houses are still stock.




Poppa looks like me and you will be racing in the same class if all goes well... A/FX...

Re: NSS Record Holder!!!! - 12/07/11 05:47 AM

Rob, I think there will be a lot of 9.25 rides next year... Doug's shooting for 9.25 in his new 64', Dirk is building a B-body hemi car, there are a couple more being built in the Indy area. I would not be surprized to see a dozen cars at that index. I would bet there will be a few more 8 second cars as well.

Check out the wheel base on Tank's old 64' it is 4" shorter than stock. poppaj

Sounds great dont get me wrong you know we are all shooting for 8's but if I can get this little 426 to go 9.20-9.40s ill be happy.. My future plan is to build a big CI hemi...

I didnt realize the wheel base being smaller.. You can notice that or you knew that?

I have the motor...I should of bought the car too. My 71 cuda isnt legal in most NSS assoc. Oh well, maybe a 68 cuda one day.

It's legal in the F/X classes (9.75 or quicker) There's quite a few that are short. Check some "legal" NHRA S/S cars and you'll see what I mean.
As for the stock appearing seats check these out. 19 lbs apiece w/floor mounts, it helps when your son is a seat engineer.

Casey




Casey I was reading up on the NSS rules trying to further understand what you guys are doing. Maybe there is an exemption that is listed but according to the wording in 1.17 Heads I really do not see how B-1`s are legal in NSS. How do you do it?

1.17 HEADS
HEADS: Aftermarket cylinder heads permitted. Cylinder heads may be cast iron or
aluminum if they appear externally to be the same as was originally available on the
year/make/model of entry. Any internal cylinder-head modifications permitted.

If you ask me they are not even close not to mention the oil return lines.

first off ssr's black car isnt legal. The blue one hasnt been in the 8's. so no, he is not the fastest. Habura or Sanders is. both have been 8.48.

dap, our heads are legal. all the valve geometry is the same its not like we run a ts or predator head.... we have been to a lot of nss races and have been legal everywhere. sure it has lines sticking out...... so what. it looks the same... next year will be interesting i know of a few guys stepping it up.

NSS shootout at the monster... thats all im saying. lets see who is the fastest. i got money saying SSR isnt even a contender....

And no he isnt the fastest he has to pickup his game by 6-8 tenths... Fastest he went was a 8.97 or a .98.... Black car is a 10.5 tire car which means you have him covered right now by a full second almost...

Ok so no canted valve heads for Mopar. I know in other classes they are very specific about what heads you can and can`t use. They seem vague for NSS for some reason. I think an outlaw F/X class allowing Dominators and SV-1`s might be entertaining

Ron Mancini ran a B-1 more than 10 years ago. It was in a 62 dart 4 speed. If memory serves me right it was 452". Ran as quick as 9.15@140+. It kicked a rod and burned the front clip at Gateway. He sold it to someone here in Mi. i haven't seen it since.

I wasnt aware of that Casey that you guys were the only ones running a B1 head... Id figure if it was legal to run a lot more guys would run them since you can make some big power with B1 heads... 2012 should be a good yr for the NSS cars since more racers are stepping up there program...

My rims are 15x16 wide so Im fine... I can run those tires then.... Ill just have to get a set or beadlocks for those tires...I dont under stand what the big deal is if you do run a 16 rim anyway just less side wall and stiffer tire I believe... Would be nice if they did make 14x32 legal in FX class....

M/T makes a 10.5w x 33.5 x 16 all the top NMCA class guys run them on 16x16 beadlocks. Should be the ticket for you if they vote down the 14x32's


i dont belive you can run that 16 in tire in nss.




Bill what sise rims do you have on the back of your car?

Re: NSS Record Holder!!!! - 12/12/11 02:46 AM

All this talk about the fastest NSS car,
I suggest bring them to Beech Bend for the Dave Duell Classic (NMCA) race in August 2012 and register them for the 8.50 index for the weekend. NMCA usually does a thorough tech job. This would probably show who's the baddest, if they can cover the 8.50 index and pass tech. You can let hang out in qualifying and then slow down to the 8.50 index for the race.

fwiw my keyboard only runs the 10.50 index

Think there is only a couple of mopars that can hit the 8.50 index, Sanders and Habura, and it will take good air and a good track.

The tire rule is not going to change in NSS. It is a core rule in the NMCA. The only rule change for 2012 is to add the AAAA/FX which is 8.50 class. This will have to been done on 10.5W tires. Thanks, Doug

Maybe you go a lil faster if you have less rotating weight back there.

This is 2011, people are going in the 7's and 6's on 9 and 10" tires

Actually I have been wondering about the B-1 stuff in NSS for quite a while. So with the wording of the rule as per 1.17 with any internal modifications can't you guys run M/C's? After all is is the same casting. I guess is all up to interpretation. Thank you for clearing that up.




Whats up Dap? There are a few guys running B1 heads in NSS... They wont let the TS or Preditor heads run...




Actually as far as I know we have the only B1 NSS car running at the moment.
Dap your right we could run the M/C no problem, in fact could run a PSO head

Casey




I wasnt aware of that Casey that you guys were the only ones running a B1 head... Id figure if it was legal to run a lot more guys would run them since you can make some big power with B1 heads... 2012 should be a good yr for the NSS cars since more racers are stepping up there program...




NoJoke let me get this straight....YOu think its ok for WhompinWedge to have a B1 head...but SSR cant?? Or shouldnt??

Tony your right I never did meet you yet next time I will come by and say hello I have no beef with you... You can come by my trailer to Ill share some cannolis with you as well...

As far as the B1 heads I dont make the rules... The only reason I asked about the tire size 14x32 is because my rear was shortened so much that is I ran a 10" or a 12" rim even with a 3" offset I will have 8" of open quarter... The tires will be tucked under the car so much that it wont be safe as well as look like crap thats the only reason because I would have no problem running a 10.5 tire Im only going to be running in the 9's...

Your right NSS should be run period correct but also in the 60's they ran a FX class cars that were modified...

Who said SSR car run a B1? He dont have B1 he has a TS heads big differance....The black car cant run NSS tube front end he has to change that back to stock front suspension as well as steering... Thats why I changed my front suspension I had a tube front end as well with a rack....

Hey Rob,
Your 65' still has torsion bar front suspension correct? Also I was informed by another racer that the NMCA rules commitee was listening to opinions on some new rule ideas, one was letting 8.50-9.00 run up to a 14x32 tire. They are trying to get more NHRA/IHRA Super stock cars in the mix like thunderbolts, 64'-67' B Bodies and the AH cudas and darts. Think about it there are a lot of cars that this would make legal. poppaj




PoppaJ did you hear if they confirmed about that tire rule change for 8.50-9.00?




Hi Rob,
Have not heard anymore on the 14x32 tire talk but I think it will be tough to convice the NMCA to do this since thier top classes run in the 5's on 10.5w x 33.5's which all A/NSS and all FX classes can run now. They are almost the size of 14x32's. Most guys put them on 15" wide rims. poppaj

Tunnel ram OK in NMCA but it all must fit under a 5" hemi/MW scoop. poppaj

Re: Who has the Fastest NSS car!!!! - 12/14/11 12:13 AM

My brother runs a tunnel ram on his low deck 499 in his 64. He is not happy with it as the top of the carbs come right to the bottom of this scoop. He plans to build an RB block eng and go to either the Indy box crossram or the standard Mopar crossram. I have to agree that the tunnel ram belongs more in Nostalgic Pro Stock more then NSS. Most NSS rules say you have to run 2 fours if thats what they used back then and you can use a tunnel ram as long as its 2 fours. But in my opinion when you look at my brothers 64 with this large hemi scoop and 2 fours on the tunnel ram and then compare it to my 63 with the right size Maxie scoop and one carb my 63 looks way more period correct with the hoods closed. I mean the fans see them race with the hoods closed and do these newer taller versions of the hemi and max wedge scoops look more correct then a single carb car with the normal size scoop ? Not knocing the newer taller scoops its just alot of NSS clubs wont let me run with a single carb as you have to have 2 carbs for my 63 to be legal. But I feel with the hood down my 63 looks more correct then cars with the taller scoops so they can fit 2 carbs with different intakes. And dont get me wrong as I am not complaining as I could not run many NSS races even if I was all legal by the rules. I am just making an observation that the fans cant see how many carbs are under the hood when they are racing with the hoods down. But they can see the bigger scoops that are not correct looking. And I do understand that the bigger engines most use now need alot more air also. Just an observation that I was curious what anyone else might think. Ron

Re: Who has the Fastest NSS car!!!! - 12/14/11 03:04 AM

I don't think the TALL scoops look correct- period or otherwise.
And tunnel rams belong in Pro Stock.
STR and Indy crossrams are actually layed over tunnel rams that fit under correct height scoops.

The carbs being to close to the scoop is a problem for sure you can loose power because of that and volocity... Thats the same scoop I have on my car and to be honest that scoop any taller looks like S**T if you ask me you better putting a pro stock scoop on that car at that point... If you brother changes his intake to one of those indy bath tub set ups he going to loose power.. I had a low deck 512 with a indy single carb and it ran unreal. I had a Indy Tunnel ram with 2 4's that I never put on because the car was running so consistant that I didnt want to mess with it but the tunnel ram with 2 4's was good for another 60hp easy.... If he can drop that motor a half and inch and get a little more clearance for is carbs hes better off... Id hate to see him loose power... Just my

Re: NSS Record Holder!!!! - 12/14/11 05:44 AM

Actually my brother is going to build a complete new eng using a RB block as the 499 in it now is a low deck B block. He wants to build a much stronger eng with the RB block and Victor heads as he has RPM heads on the 499 in it now. And then maybe use the Indy box style crossram.

As far as I know any 2 four intake is legal for NSS acording to the way the rules read I believe ? Ron

My thoughts and what is ultimately deemed legal are 2 different things. It appears that each NSS organization has different interpretation of what is and isn't allowed.
That would in my opinion be legal only on 68 Darts and Cuda's- but other cars that run in NSS emulating current Super Stockers (in the SS/AA and upper classes might be using these). The "Honkin' Hemi 65 Plymouth comes to mind.
Ultimately it all comes down to bracket racing after class run offs.
Groups I run with here on the East coast would allow that on an A/FX classified car.

Only in the FX classes looks like.

1.21 INTAKE MANIFOLD
INTAKE MANIFOLD: Sheet metal intake prohibited. Manifolds restricted to

necessary to accommodate carburetor placement.
Sheet metal units permitted in AAA/FX, AA/FX, and AF/X ONLY.

Many times you will see the fast cars on the bumper,guardrail or abort a run because they get out of the groove.Just watch a Pro/Mod program,many times the quickest car doesn't make the program or goes out early.
Chasing ETs is one thing,winning events another.Realibility and consistancy is the main factor in winning events,bragging rights for ETs but there will always someone willing to push a little harder and run quicker no matter what the cost.The one who's willing to spend the money usually gets the ET bragging rights,the ones that hone their skills and runs reliable and consistant usually win events and take home some cash.

So this thread is 5 pages deep and no one knows who has the fastest NSS car still?




Sanders and Habura... both been 8.48, I like the 422 guys but dont call those NSS legal..

Yea going the fastest isnt the key to winning, but it sure is fun!

And Tony, I like how you give NSS a bunch of crap when you race an index class as well... anyone can go 8.50s with the juice man. These guys are doing it NA with small carbs. Nothing about these cars are 60's tech. B1's are legal... just like all aluminum engines.. 600-13x indy heads... Look ate these cars from the outside they look like the 60's. Look under the hood it looks similar... what more do you want?

I know when my Grandpa bought his new '65 Coronet, he was able to run right down to Sheffler's in New Castle, PA and order new Weld Pro Stars, ladder bars, Strange Coil-Overs, a PPP shifter, and Indy heads to go racing with. Then he went over to Superior Sign for new vinyl lettering on his $5,000 base/clear paint job. Yep, all that in 1965...

You know what I meant lets say they "resemble" the past, better? Maybe we should all go back to leaf springs and iron blocks. Only things you could get back then......

Throw some cheaters on 8 inch wheels, some americans on the front, put them on on Ed Cooks 63 plymouth. That would be a NSS. The crazy thing it would probably run in the 10 teens.

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

Actually my brother is going to build a complete new eng using a RB block as the 499 in it now is a low deck B block. He wants to build a much stronger eng with the RB block and Victor heads as he has RPM heads on the 499 in it now. And then maybe use the Indy box style crossram.

As far as I know any 2 four intake is legal for NSS acording to the way the rules read I believe ? Ron




I'm sorry Ron I mis read what you wrote about the intake... Is he going to use a mega block for his new build?





I am not sure as he has not told me yet. Ron

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...

Re: NSS Record Holder!!!! - 12/15/11 12:05 AM

I bought my 1963 plymouth Belvedere new in 64. It is a stage III 426 aluminum car with all aluminum frontend with trunk mounted battery. It came with the new improved 518 stage III heads.I believe the fastest I went with it was 12.27 on a set of drag 500 slicks out back on SS springs.
I still race it to this day, only modifications I made were a set of Cal-tracs and hooker headers bumped up the compression and a roller cam for some more power,Dvorack prepped my heads years ago and we were able to go low 11's. 11.08
I still enjoy the NSS racing and love how these cars are still racing strong after all these years.

Re: NSS Record Holder!!!! - 12/15/11 12:28 AM

So we are 100% positive that a B-1 is legal, and a sheet metal intake is legal....... so what if a SS/AH car shows up on a 10.5 and no transbrake.....whats the ruling there

Im thinking I need to put up a few thousand dollars for a heads up NSS shoot out.......

Maybe we can get SSR to come out and run Poppa J and they dont even have to put up any money! That way we can really find out who has the fasted NSS car

And I know, its a bracket race.....but Mopar racers as a whole would rather chase a timeslip than win a bracket race and we all know that....I Know I do

How about a picture! I'd love to see that car! They're is a guy that races with us once and a while at Cordova Ill. that has a 64 hemi aluminum Dodge that he bought I heard in 65,it's red and silver and it still has all the old lettering on it from back then and the aluminum is getting ratty here and there but its a real car and he's having fun with it, it's really neat to look at. I can't remember his name at the moment.

Yes I have a few pictures of the car now as it sits.My brother also has a 64 Aluminum Savoy. We both got them in White with Red interiors.
We still retain the factory lapbelts and pushbutton on the dash board.
I did however break the ball & trunion years ago and I put in a 65 slip yoke transmission.

This is a breath of fresh air in an otherwise rotten world.

SS/AH car should be totally legal I dont see why it wouldnt be but it would have to be a NSS/FX race then because of the sheetmetal intake since I have the same issue...

Re: NSS Record Holder!!!! - 12/15/11 02:16 AM

Being it ia a race for the fastest it stands to reason that the AFX NSS cars would be the ones competing. The SS/AH car will have to change tires.

i for 1 run a cast crossram and yes id like to see a ah car with 10.5 and no transbrake run. im sure they would get down the track but it may be difficult for them. and my hats off to those guys for going as fast as they are.

maybe the real qusetion should be who has the fastest nmca nss/nss fx car. and who has the fastest nss 420 car because of the different rulesi.e tire size,not electrics.sheetmetal vs cast intake and so on. i would run in a nss shootout. p.s on my 10.5's

Yes Sanders cuda runs 10.5x33.5's We pit together, Casey drives the car some for him, it is a super nice race car.
Gary J is going to slap some 10.5's on his AH car, no trans brake or air shifter it's 100% legal.

Clinton would have to hack off that areo scoop and put on a hemi scoop, I would bet there is at least one dominator on there probily two, they got to go to. Probily all aluminum interior- no good...probily just one bucket seat- no good, add another, add carpet, put the original dash back in. No one piece frontends,no rack and pinion, no aluminum firewall, add inner fenders. Put all that weight back in then bring it, probily will run more like 9.50

To be totally honest if the SS/AH cars do race in the FX class and they get there cars to hook we are all in trouble.. None of us stand a chance.. Those guys are in a league of there own.... LOL

I bought my 1963 plymouth Belvedere new in 64. It is a stage III 426 aluminum car with all aluminum frontend with trunk mounted battery. It came with the new improved 518 stage III heads.I believe the fastest I went with it was 12.27 on a set of drag 500 slicks out back on SS springs.
I still race it to this day, only modifications I made were a set of Cal-tracs and hooker headers bumped up the compression and a roller cam for some more power,Dvorack prepped my heads years ago and we were able to go low 11's. 11.08
I still enjoy the NSS racing and love how these cars are still racing strong after all these years.




How about a picture! I'd love to see that car! They're is a guy that races with us once and a while at Cordova Ill. that has a 64 hemi aluminum Dodge that he bought I heard in 65,it's red and silver and it still has all the old lettering on it from back then and the aluminum is getting ratty here and there but its a real car and he's having fun with it, it's really neat to look at. I can't remember his name at the moment.
Russ




Yes I have a few pictures of the car now as it sits.My brother also has a 64 Aluminum Savoy. We both got them in White with Red interiors.
We still retain the factory lapbelts and pushbutton on the dash board.
I did however break the ball & trunion years ago and I put in a 65 slip yoke transmission.



The 64 Dodge is "Branded" owned by Frank Zalud. It's a beater,but it's a real aluminum car he bought for $1600 in 65. I made one pass in it many years ago. Hes a super nice guy.

I have mine brand new in the boxes I had them looked over when I got them to make sure it was enough fuel for the motor and it is amazing how all the SS/AH guys have to run them and they can not be modified.. I recall I beleive it was in 2006 I walked over and saw Bucky and we were speaking he had one a race a few weeks before and teck tore his car down and they took away his win because he had changed the screws on the butterflies... Thats how tight the ruless are...

First off Tony, no hard feelings here man. Your car is awesome, hands down the best leaving car on this board. Id like to see you run ole Chris in that black dodge, I think you might have to give him a head start though haha

Clintons car sure does run but I dont think it would ever fit NSS. Doesnt he run a dry sump too?

Josh, Im down to run Chris at whichever race you have. Like the ole man already said an AH car could run no problem and we would all be screwed if they hooked up and ran haha.

Like I already said lets bring all the fast guys out, put them in a race and see who comes out on top...

Nostalgia Super Stock
National Association
Mission
The mission of the Nostalgia Super Stock National Association is to be a national rule-making, administrative, sanctioning and educational authority which protects and preserves the traditional form of Nostalgia Super Stock drag racing.
In addition, the NSSNA seeks to provide a stable format in which to facilitate and organize the construction and/or modification of historically accurate NSS vehicles and support all the events in which these vehicles compete.
However, the NSSNA is not to be involved with the financial promotion and support of any specific event or race other than its own national event, the Dave Duell Classic Nostalgia Super Stock Nationals.
Fundamental Principles
In order to accurately preserve the history of traditional Super Stock racing to the best extent possible, the following general principles are considered to be permanent, non-negotiable and are to be supported by the specific rules at all times.


Historical accuracy – American manufactured/factory created/supported makes/models for drag racing competition
Multiple carburetion preferred
Cast intake manifold required, if available
Maximum rear slick width designation 10.5W
Footbrake only – no transmission brake allowed
No electronic elapsed-time bracket racing aids allowed
Class/index designations required – no elapsed-time bracket racing dial-ins allowed
Eliminator Description

As administered by the NSSNA, Nostalgia Super Stock is an index-style footbrake only eliminator for the year models, body styles, and engine combinations which accurately represent those American-built cars that raced in the Factory Experimental and Super Stock classes of the early and mid-1960s.
Some exceptions in the authenticity of these cars will be allowed only at the discretion of the NSSNA. Among those exceptions, but not limited to, are factors concerning safety, equality in performance, availability, and durability.
Classification will be based upon a visual inspection and an elapsed time range. No modifications which alter the car from factory stock are permitted unless they are specifically allowed in these rules. Sandbagging, excessive braking near the finish line or excessive mph for a given elapsed time are all subject to possible disqualification.
Nostalgia Super Stock is an all-run field and will compete on a National Hot Rod Association sportsman-type ladder. The eliminator will qualify by elapsed time closest to class index, be paired according to qualifying positions, and then advance to eliminations. All participants in Nostalgia Super Stock must have a valid elapsed time recorded to be placed into eliminator competition.

Communications
The NSSNA maintains a communications office to dialog with racers, race track owners/promoters, other racing organizations, and the public concerning policies, rules and procedures and other concerns.
The office uses Evansville Volvo Kia Mazda as its official Internet web site and creates and maintains such documents and records sufficient to accomplish its mission.
The office shall at various times publish rules and race procedures, subject to revision as determined by the NSSNA. Questions or other communications should be directed to:

SUMMARY
Using the 2008 NMCA rules as a model, the previous sections were written by a six-racer committee whose members have had extensive experience in Nostalgia Super Stock racing, including the national event series of the NMCA and Goodguys Associations, the regional event series of the Chrysler Classic events and also regional clubs and associations such as Nostalgia Super Stocks Inc. and the Texas Outsiders.
In addition, these rules and procedures reflect almost 20 years of both development and tradition in NSS racing. The committee is confident these guidelines will be able to competently administer NSS racing both now and into the future.
The original committee included Mark Artis of the Texas Outsiders, Doug Duell of the Dave Duell Classic, John Grinwald of Nostalgia Super Stocks Inc., Clay Kossuth of the Texas Outsiders, Jim Netherland of the NMCA series and Bob Wilkiewicz of Nostalgia Super Stocks Inc.

Hi Doug thank you for chiming in and making it clear about the heads...

The B1-TS heads are legal or not legal?

Also is there anyone running in the FX class with bigger tires then 33x10.5w?

Thank you Rob

I was told "No canted valves" for Mopar Wedge when I was thinking of running Preditors, that's when I went to B-1's.

MC B1 or the PSO B1 most likely would fly. They are both based on a standard B1 casting. Best says 475 CFM for their PSO not sure about Muscle Motors.

Re: NSS Record Holder!!!! - 12/17/11 04:16 PM

I will admit being a Indy customer for 20 years I do not know alot about B1 heads. I visited there website yesterday and here is my views on the legality of these heads. Feel free to correct me if Im wrong but it looks like B1 heads except fot the B1-TS will bolt right up to a wedge block. Although none of these aftermarket heads look exactly like a stock heads, these heads from a appearence standpoint are in the ballpark. But the B1-TS looks a little outside the ballpark to me. So based upon the fact the B1-TS will not bolt up to wedge block I would say at this time the B1-TS and Indy Preditor head are not legal in NSS. The NSS rules do not address certain brands of heads and may need to in the future. These heads to me appears to be more for Top Sportsman/Top Dragster, super fast bracket applications. Also Josh posted the NSS rules yesterday but it does not include our lasted class AAAA/FX 8.50 index. I hope this info has helped. See ya at the track, Doug Duell

No I want me in my car to race you in your car, it's a bracket race- not heads up. Cause you'll be faster than me and I'll leave first then you can chase and we can have fun at the finish line.

Damn who died and made you god Heads-up guys are racers just like index/bracket racers just chasing time slips a different way...I have raced and won in some 5.30 8th mile index races but it sure is hard getting use to dragging the brake pedal at the finish line...Who needs big tires when were getting it done on 28x10.5 tires and going way faster...Don't need any attention from the net as i get plenty at the track being the only MOPAR at most races i attend....

Well said. One of the beauties of NSS racing is that allows us all to relive the past without the intensity and headaches, and, yes, jerks, that populate class racing. All "who's the fastest" proves is who has the most money, and spends it in the right places. There are plenty faster than me, and I couldn't care less. What you "who's faster guys" are hung up is not NSS racing.

The only thing I disagree with is the sheetmetal intakes and 14x32. Big tires have been used on superstock cars since the 70's. Hardly a trick of the week. If big tires and sheet metal intakes are legal you open up your event to a ton more cars. Just about every NHRA and IHRA superstock car has big tires and a fab intake. Isn't it a good idea for the survivial of the class to get car counts? Most of the biggest gripes i see on this website is lack of payouts at these mopar only events. Most of the lack of payouts stem from lack of car counts. The class is a dial in anyway, why not loosen up the rules.

I agree with HemiDart, NMCA needs to look to make some changes. I have a 1970 Hemi Challenger and have tried for four years to get NMCA rules team to open up the rules to let 1970 & 1971 big block cars into NMCA NSS. The answer I get back is they look at it, but they don't want to let any new body styles in NSS, which to me the cars were talking about are 40 years old. The rules team keeps thinking that letting in two more years would ruin the NSS for all the racers. I have talked to many of the racers that run NMCA NSS and they don't understand it either. Most racers don't care, they want a place to race and NMCA does a great job taking care of the racers and has good sponsors support. I agree with the 10.5 tires size, so that the guys don't have to cut up these orginal cars fi they don't want to. Not trying to steal this tread. Just needed to agree with HemiDart. Thanks / Gary

I think since they can run sheetmetal intakes in the FX Class why not run a 14x32 and about letting more cars run in the class would be great it would help the purse and car count... Im sure there are plenty of cars that have legal cars but they have a big tire and cant run because of that reason...

I have a sheetmetal intake big tire ss/ car that i would like to attend some of the nss races. It would be hard to change my engine combo but I could easily change to a 10.5w tire and make that work. Asfar as the trans break that would be harder to disconnect ccuase i still need to get reverse. It would be easy to police if someone was using one because they could hear the 2 step at the line if they did.

I think since they can run sheetmetal intakes in the FX Class why not run a 14x32 and about letting more cars run in the class would be great it would help the purse and car count... Im sure there are plenty of cars that have legal cars but they have a big tire and cant run because of that reason...



I have a sheetmetal intake big tire ss/ car that i would like to attend some of the nss races. It would be hard to change my engine combo but I could easily change to a 10.5w tire and make that work. Asfar as the trans break that would be harder to disconnect ccuase i still need to get reverse. It would be easy to police if someone was using one because they could hear the 2 step at the line if they did.




I have the same issue as far as transbrake I need to have it hooked up for reverse.. I'm sure they can all hear that at the line....

I am pretty sure what he is saying is Hemifred does not use a two step. He just sets the brake and floors the throttle. The stall of his converter keep him from over revving.

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

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?

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

Re: NSS Record Holder!!!! - 12/20/11 01:56 AM

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.

What you don't realize is that class was weight per cubic inch depending on the MFGR of the motor. Most of the cars your talking about would have to weigh 5000lbs because of the size of there motors, including myself. LOL

I agree 100%!! Pro Nostalgia wasn't as simple as building a big motor and throwing it into a light car. I don't think people relize how hard of a class it was to run. The Booze Brothers worked very hard at this class and it showed with their results.

Well the class isnt being run any more is this correct? If so maybe its time for some rule changing so more people can run in that class and bring it back some of the old time cars and some new life back to that class.. Sort of like what Milan puts on " Run What You Brung" and keep the cars 62-69 looking some what period correct only NA motors 3200lb any size motor, tunnel rams,trans brakes, any size tire...ect...
