Following is the link to the rules and regulations, accepted body and fuel listings for the 2008 NOPI Drag Racing Series sanctioned by NHRA.

NHRA and NOPI Motorsports has developed classes to ensure that all cars that competed in the NHRA Xplod Drag Racing Series in 2007 will have a place to race in the NOPI Drag Racing Series sanctioned by NHRA in 2008. Combining the classes brought on many difficult decisions that had to be made in order to provide a level playing field and encourage side-by-side racing for all competitors.

NHRA and NOPI thank you for your patience and we are looking forward to an exciting year of racing.

If you have any questions or comments please direct them to Glenn Woods at glennw@nopi.com. Individual questions will NOT be answered in this forum.

SWEET

AllMoToRB18c

damn i got all excited about the Pure Street rules and theyre not in yet...haha now im back to being sad lol

MrParks

seems like there is no minimum for fuel cell....mmmm

also i think you got the strain guage and dog box mixed up. how would you regulate a strain guage? i could put mine on the bottom of the shifter....

seems like they removed the dox box penality all together, pro classes look great.

unlimited street looks insane.

my biggest concern is you have so many variables looks to me you should move tech into thurs fri for these guys, lots of things to look over and regulate.

but all in all looks very solid. there is some things i would have added though.

Hmm...

Turbo Street tire rules.

FWD limited to a 25 x 9"
RWD and AWD limited to a 26 x 9"

Where's the logic in that? Give the cars with more traction more tire and give the cars with less traction less tire? lol

Also:

AWD with transfer case min weight - 2900
AWD w/o transfer case min weight - 3000

What's an AWD car w/o a transfer case?

Joe notice that there is no mention of FWD turbo 4 cylinder cars having to run a radial in PWS. Bias plys it is

SPOOLINmatt

Turbo Street

6 cyl fwd gets a 74mm turbo, is that right? seems kinda wierd that k series 4 banger gets a 66mm while a 6 cylinder gets a biggun.

also a 6 cylinder in turbo street that is RWD gets SLICKS? it used to be drag radials and they were running 9.2's lol
