Re: Any of you old timers recognize this NHRA piece?
 

Here's a better picture of what's inside...the original NHRA weight/hp factors...here's a page from the Mercury section that I scanned for my buddy Brian Stefina, who runs a '58 430/400hp Monterey in Pure Stock... that car was THE most powerful car of the '50s!

Re: Any of you old timers recognize this NHRA piece?
 

Hmmmm...

I think I've seen one of those books before.

Good score Rob! https://www.yenko.net/ubbthreads/imag...iggthumpup.gif

Re: Any of you old timers recognize this NHRA piece?
 

Verne I have NHRA pocket rule books for 61,63,64...and a Standard 1320 for 63-64 if you want to know or see something

Re: Any of you old timers recognize this NHRA piece?
 

Rob,
Is there any other information in the book other than weight/hp factors? Such as allowable engine specs/parts per class?

Verne https://www.yenko.net/ubbthreads/imag...iggthumpup.gif

Bob,
I already have all the rule books from '59 into the '70s.....thanks.

Re: Any of you old timers recognize this NHRA piece?
 

Nope, this is just the guide with hp/weight factors which determine in which class each make/model/engine/hp/trans will run...

Re: Any of you old timers recognize this NHRA piec

Re: Any of you old timers recognize this NHRA piec
 

What's the latest year the book includes Rob?

Chevys...............not Mercurys........... https://www.yenko.net/ubbthreads/imag...s/rolleyes.gif

Re: Any of you old timers recognize this NHRA piec
 

1950 to 1980

New NHRA piece!
 

Finally acquired a super rare NHRA piece I've been chasing for a while: an original NHRA Tech Manual, from Maple Grove Raceway in Mohnton, PA! It's chocked full of NHRA tech bulletins, original NHRA blueprint specs for each make/model, original fliers & payout info from Maple Grove, and lots, lots more, all from 1950-1980...well worth the wait, and a great bookend to the NHRA class guide I got a while back...

Rob,
Congratulations on a great find!!!! https://www.yenko.net/ubbthreads/imag...iggthumpup.gif
I would be extremely interested in anything in that book pertaining to "W" block motors.
You can pm me and we can work out details if you want. Please reply.

Re: New NHRA piece!
 

Verne: give me a target year(s) and I'll get ya a copy...

Re: New NHRA piece!
 

'61, '62, '63 Rob https://www.yenko.net/ubbthreads/imag...iggthumpup.gif

I'm especially interested in data on any parts released and approved mid season for those years. That looks like the book that should have that info. https://www.yenko.net/ubbthreads/imag...lins/smile.gif

Thanks a bunch. https://www.yenko.net/ubbthreads/imag...lins/beers.gif
