Ok ninjatek, right now put me down for .....Pontiac Funny Car..ill have you put me down later for N P/S..dont know what body Yet!!!!!!! One Pontiac for NF/C is penned in for you. Point of clarification! (or reminder for some) Only the NF/C class cars are competing in the Manufacturers' Championship Race. N/PS class cars are running a separate race and are not a part of Manufacturers' Championship Race. It is not necessary to ID your car to sign-up for the N/PS class race. So, scottman2007 don't let not knowing which body you are going to use for N/PS be a deterrent from signing up. So, should I put you down for N/PS? Don't feel like you have to just 'cause I'm putting you on blast. I don't want to pressure you . . . . Well? . . . C'mon man, you know you can't help yourself, sign up.

Racemaster Rick here with a few thoughts regarding the upcoming Funny Car Manufacturers Championship at Lions Drag Strip. Let me suggest that there's a little strategy involved in selecting your entry for this race. Because it's a TEAM race, only four cars will qualify for each manufacturer team. Currently there are eight pre-entries for Chevy and six for the Independents. That means that some of these cars are going to get bumped out of the Big Show and will run as blockers on another team or race in the open competition. On the other hand, there are only three pre-entries for the Ford and Chrysler teams, and several of those are two-car entries. Since each racer can have only one qualified car on a team, that means there are still open slots on the Ford and Chrysler teams -- a slam-dunk to qualify. In a perfect world, we'll have four strong entries on each of the four manufacturer teams. So maybe some racers might want to consider an alternative body choice. I'll classify the cars according to manufacturer when they arrive, so it's OK to switch bodies without having to change your entry info with Ninjatek. For more information on the format for the Funny Car Manufacturers Championship, see the race announcement: www.nitroslots.com/index.cgi?board=ntra&action=display&thread=2320Thanks, Rick V.

Ok so here it is in a nut shell. NF/C Manufacturers Cars are 4 gear: www.ninjatekprojects.com/images/NFC_Rules_2011sm.jpgThen the NF/C is a 4 gear with 65-79 funny type car as per: ARMATURES: As delineated above. Accepted armatures are any production Stock A/W arms and JL armatures as well as original Aurora T- jet types. 2 lam or three lam armatures are acceptable. Specifically omitted/banned are any arms that measure less than 14.0 ohms and/or any that carry the following designations: Wild Ones, Tuff Ones, Mean Green, Speed Wound, Blue Drag arms, or any similar High Performance or Hot Stock armature. Armatures may be balanced and blueprinted and/or bonded. Armature may not be retimed, rewound or dewound. Then: NP/S T-Jet In accordance with all above rules the following specific rules are in effect. BODY:Must be an approved make and model for this class, and must be of two-door Hardtop or Sedan style. Bodies must be of North American prototypes only, years 1965-1979. Bodies are required to have a stock appearance and attitude. Wings, Air dams, spoilers and all similar devices and appendages must be only those employed on a similarly-classed full size car. Cars built to a unique/ specific/legal but generally unknown prototype shall require documentation by way of photograph. Air-scoops will be permitted but must conform to one of the styles common to the era. Common scoop/hood treatments are early pro-stock "boxes" or snorkels. Also permitted are Ford type 'hood blisters.” Modern Pro-Stock and Pro-Mod scoops are not permitted nor are injector 'hat' inductions permitted. Cowl induction hoods are permitted but should not be extreme in size. Cartoon-like appearances are not accepted. Body posts may be modified to lower, raise or rake body, especially to clear Approved race tires. (see below) Such Tires MAY extend beyond the body lines provided such extension is not excessive. (No more than 1/8” is RECOMMENDED.) Resin replica bodies are permitted. Bodies may lightened by grinding or sanding. Such removal of material shall not deface the outward appearance of the vehicle, consistent with period-correct Pro Stock Practice. Wheel wells may be mildly reshaped to accomodate racing tires. Such reshaping shall accomodate the tires with a stock rear body height. Such reshaping shall reasonably copy the arc of the tire employed. The inner fender area (INSIDE THE BODY) may be sanded to clear approved racing tires. Bodies must have front and rear glass as supplied by the manufacturer. Window glass must often be removed during car construction; therefore Window glass mounting tabs (only) may be ground off to facilitate window removal. One piece front/rear window castings may have the 'joining' material removed. Bodies shall employ all other trim as supplied by the injection molder or resin caster. Extreme 'custom' versions of stock Bodies are not permitted. Front and rear ‘Glass’ windows are required. Lexan, acetate, or similar window material allowed only as original equipment. (most resin bodies employ Lexan-type windows from the producer) SIDE window glass, when not part of the production body, may be added and may be of lexan, Injected plastic, acetate or similar materials. Bodies that are produced with injection molded side glass, or any other type of side glass must retain the OEM window. SOLID COLOR, or OPAQUE glass may be used but must be painted black, or Silver. Cast-in-glass- bodies (one piece casting) shall have the windows painted black. Corvette Bodies are not legal in PRO STOCK. Similarly, El Camino/Ranchero type bodies, Station Wagon bodies, and Sedan delivery (panel) bodies are prohibited. Other Sports type bodies, such as Cobra, Cheetah and similar are not permitted in NOSTALGIA PRO STOCK. Concept car bodies or other custom versions not sold to general public by protoype automakers are like-wise not permitted. [Examples, but not limited to: Corvette Mako Shark, Mustang II, Pantera and Sunbeam Tiger] Note: see Appendix one, Body Listing. PICK-UPS: Modified pick-ups and/or braid pick-ups are permitted Shunt wires are nor permitted in PRO STOCK TIRES: Rear tires may not exceed .450 inches in diameter x .230" width. (Tuff Ones standard size). Aftermarket silicone tires are permitted. Tires may be bonded to wheels. WHEELS: Aftermarket wheels are permitted in lieu of factory wheels. I think I got it now

Oh wheelis bars are allowed in both classes. That comes right from the man himself. Can someone verify I have it right now ?? I am having a moment, forgive me. Sorry Joe, I was mistaken when I said wheelie bars were allowed in both classes. No wheelie bars allowed in NF/C. Wheelie bars allowed for N/PS. All other rulings you list are correct.

Hey Joe, another correction to your earlier post. You listed the Nostalgia Pro Stock (N/PS T-Jet) armature rules as part of NF/C (4Gear) class rules. That paragraph should be included with N/PS rules. Only the rules listed in the 4-Gear Funny Car Rules chart apply to NF/C class. Everything you listed except the first line should be applied to N/PS (tjet). Below is part of your listing with corrections. Ok so here it is in a nut shell. NF/C Manufacturers Cars are 4 gear: www.ninjatekprojects.com/images/NFC_Rules_2011sm.jpgThen the NF/C is a 4 gear with 65-79 funny type car as per:This line is incorrect and should read: N/PS T-Jet ARMATURES: As delineated above. Accepted armatures are any production Stock A/W arms and JL armatures as well as original Aurora T- jet types. 2 lam or three lam armatures are acceptable. Specifically omitted/banned are any arms that measure less than 14.0 ohms and/or any that carry the following designations: Wild Ones, Tuff Ones, Mean Green, Speed Wound, Blue Drag arms, or any similar High Performance or Hot Stock armature.
