Slant Six Racing News Records - all classes

[Dart270]

This thread will host the list of all SSRN records currently held. We will update as they are broken.

Doug, please make this a sticky. We need an electronic version of all the records typed or pasted into this thread, with dates they were set and if possible car and driver.

Thanks,

Lou

The rules on how records are set were last published in SSRN #49, page 27. The last records were published in SSRN #52. Since that time only one record has been reset, Jason Davis went 11.279 at 114.22 MPH in the C/Alcohol class at Clay City 10/11/09.

RULES FOR RECORD SETTING

- Edited & posted by Allen Dutra, August 2010

It has been a long time since we have printed the rules that govern the records that we print in each issue. I
nterest in setting records usually picks up when incentives are offered such as at this years Farmington race.
At this time records are only maintained for doorslamrner type cars. The records for ET and speed in each class can be held by different cars.

Records are maintained for twelve classes on both the quarter and eighth mile. Cars are classified by weight: C for over 2,700#, B for 2,350-2,699#, and A for 2,000-2349#. Then they are classified by type of fuel and degree of modification. G is for gasoline, this means gas that would pass an NHRA fuel check, no designer oxygenated gas or E85. A is for alcohol with no power enhancers, especially no nitro methane. N is for nitrous oxide which may be used with either gas or alcohol. U is for unlimited as to fuel and modifications, all supercharged cars go into this class but nitrous is also allowed.

Of course all entries must be powered by a Mopar Slant 6 engine. For purposes of these records, this means that the engine must be based on a Slant 6 block. The head may be modified in any way, replaced by one from another engine, or may be entirely fabricated. The above classes are based on the high deck 225 block, if a low deck 170 type block is used, the car will be moved to the next heavier class. That is a car weighing from 2,350 to 2,699# powered by a 170 type block would be classified in the “C” class.

All cars must weigh at least the minimum for their class but they cannot weigh more than the maximum, that is a 2,800# car cannot claim a class B record even if it is faster than the existing record.

Records can only be set at events that feature a Slant Six Racing News points race. Any run during these events, including tune ups, time trials, or race rounds in the Slant 6 or other bracket races will qualify. If it is three day event with the Slant 6 race on Saturday, records can be set on Friday or Sunday also. It is necessary to back up any record performance with a second run within 1% at the same event. If you think you have qualified for a record, contact SSRN and we will send you a form to complete. On the form you will attest to your car's weight and fuel usage. You must also send in the timing slips for your record and back up runs or copies of the same.

Eighth mile records can only be set at eighth mile Slant 6 events such as Wilkesboro or Farmington. Eighth mile splits on quarter mile time slips don’t count. At races like Clay City or Bristol where the Slant 6 race is run on the quarter mile but some other brackets are run on the eighth, we will accept quarter mile records only.

At one time we were going to adjust times with altitude correction factors at tracks over 1,500 feet but this is no longer the case. If you want to set a record, go somewhere where your car will go fast.

The records program is strictly voluntary, and any racer has the right to not submit a run for record status if he or she doesn’t wish to, for any reason. These records are maintained on the honor system and will be meaningless if all record holders don‘t adhere to the rules. Know how much your car weighs and what is in the fuel tank. The setting and resetting of records is a process that can generate a certain amount of excitement and a feeling of accomplishment.
Don't cheapen them.

Thanks Son! Now lets see some of these records fall.

[Dart270]

Ryan Peterson set the 1st C/Unlimited record at Kearney this weekend (8/22/10). 10.91 @ 124.7?? backed up by a 11.02. This will be subject to Seymour's rules, but I believe should be listed as a 10.91. Great seeing that rocket go down the track at that speed and 5300 ft density altitude.

I thought D was 3200#?

[madmax/6]

If that was the case,C would be 2700 to 3199.I am pretty sure C has allways been 2700 to 3249.D has to be 3250 or more or you would have to change the C weight.Guzzi Mark

[Dart270]

C was previously 2700 and UP, with no upper limit.

I don't know where 3250 came from. It should be C is 2700-3199 and D is 3200 and up with no upper limit. Personally, I would have no problem with 3250, but 3200 is what everyone agreed on.

I need to submit my record...

Thanks for catching that!

Lou

There was never a limit on C because there was no D.
