GASSER ELIM RULES…..GASSER ELIM. ll vehicles must meet NHRA tech to run.
Looking For Traditional GASSERS that
closely resemble the outward appearance of the gas cars that competed from the 50s through the early 70s. Anything that makes a competitor’s car appear like a “bracket car”, will not be allowed;
Pre-1968 Bodys
No wings, front spoilers or other aero enhancements
No modern hood scoops, no modern paint schemesNo Pro-Mod, Outlaw, or full tube-frame cars.
…..We’d like to see vintage style or stock wheels here, but modern wheels won’t get you tossed.
Fiberglass bodies allowed.Chopped tops allowed.
Wheelie bars allowed.
Suspesnsion:
We prefer nose-high, and straight axles. SHOULD have a traditional gasser stance—nose-high, baby!
HOWEVER, we know a lot of cars that ran in the gasser classes in the ‘60s used stock front suspensions, or were even lowered in the nose. So we do not have any rules regarding front end height or front suspension.
