2018 NMRA Limited Street

[Holovacko]

With the new class starting end of this year and full schedule next year, anyone thinking of running in that class?

 

[GNBRETT]

what are the rules exactly?

You better be bringing some serious power to the dance to compete in that class.

Most of the heads-up classes in NMRA are very competitive.

According to the latest issue of race pages, it is designed for high 8-second cars.

8's was my guess when looking at the rules. Really not much slower the Coyote modified

Every year you see a hand full f 8 second cars running true street, this class sounds like it's designed for those guys. Will be fun to watch that's for sure!!

That means it will be a mid to low 8 sec class!

Here's a nice in depth breakdown of the rules for the new Limited Street Class, it's a Blue Oval Dream. Yeah LOW 8's! You might get some Old School Ford Bad Boys showing up with some New rides..

Did you notice the tire requirements?

TIRES Bias-ply slicks up to 28-inches tall by 10.6-inches wide or 275/60R15, 305/45R17, and 275/60R17 drag radials, required—Mickey Thompson ET Street S/S, Nitto 555R (base) Add 100 pounds—Mickey Thompson ET Street R, Pro 275, and Hoosier DR2.

FYI I would hate to be lined up next to a guy with a bias-ply full slick with my car rocking 555r's or the S/S, haha...
Pretty much a no brainer which tire to run unless you have a light car to run the 275 Pro at the 100 pound penalty..

slicks should not be allowed. There are a few other rules I would change also like no ported heads or cams

 

[GNBRETT]

can anyone give me clarification on "Mass produced intake"? I have an MMR Roadrunner intake. wud that b considered MASS produced? they do have them on the shelf available for purchase?

 

[GNBRETT]

there are weight penalties for ported heads

I would think NMRA tech would approve that MMR intake. They don't wanna see stuff like one off custom sheet metal pieces.

The weight rules may help even things out. At least in the beginning. Some of the 8 second cars which are eligible by their set-up, are well under the weight requirement. Probably a mid 8 second class by end of the season, but early on, I think low 9's have a shot.

Guys that compete in Ultra Street with sm blk Fox Body combinations run high 4's in the 1/8th. The shop did a 363/Victor heads and intake with single turbo that accomplished this. The Modular guys are gonna have their hands full against bored and stroked 351's with turbo's what can make north of 1400HP.
