Charlie it's almost winter and time to argue.

3000 BB NOS, 3150 Turbo,3100 Supercharged and no additional weight for any trans. If everyone would like we could also run on 10.5W since that's the way I'm headed.

What weight for small block NOS? Jason

If everyone goes to the 10.5 w then IMO the weight breaks should go out the window. All of the serious 10.5 stuff down south is 3000 lb min. w/ any power adder. Add 100/200 lb for a clutch.

Thoughts?

Hey Bill, I thought you were opposed to lowering the weights in this class since most of the cars running in Pro were heavy and couldn't easily get down to weight?
At this point I think we all know that any serious BB/NOS motor can run just as fast or faster than the turbo in the 1/8 mile format
That's OK I think Outlaw 10.5 is the future and I like the 3000lb, 33w's and hope you brung enough! Good luck, see ya in Huntsville ;D

Remember I said it was time to argue. I do agree that if Ohio Valley would go to a 33x10.5W that all weights should be thrown out the window and one day I will get a serious NOS motor but for now I'm stuck with my "crate motor" with a little bit of spray. Good luck to you also in Huntsville I'm sure we will see each other and as always if I can help you in any way let me know. I figure that Charlie had the weighgts so low that I already ordered carbon fiber doors, Percy's lexan and a new block so I can get close to 3000 lbs. I was told that Charlie doesn't think that a 10.5W tire makes things equal but he has never told me that.
