This post wasnt meant to put any restrictions on for DW cars but I was curious as to why...
and yes a new production car CAN break buy its WAY LESS likely
DW has become one of the most participant driven publisher sponsored events I've seen especially given the small size. I'm glad they've stuck with exploring the idea of what constitutes a "fast" street car.
The registration limit reflects the logistical challenges. I'd be surprised if they added any kind of car type restriction as the balance is self adjusting as people see greater or lesser opportuntites in the different classes.

Well, then I guess I call the Cobra Jet, 4 Liter super charged 5.4 thank you.
There is that little issue of them all being no VIN body-in-white vehicles, but I hear there's a guy who can get a set of uhh, documents for the HRM tech process.
Drag Week 2006 & 2012 - Winner Street Race Big Block Naturally Aspirated - R/U 2007 Broke DW '05 and Drag Weekend '15 Coincidence?
I thought about the backup ride deal and if it was ok or not to run it if my car died before the event even started. My wife's Acura would be faster and more fun but it's bone stock and IMO that's not in the spirit unless you had a failure right before the event. My jeep has a stroked I6 and the entire drivetrain has been upgraded. I feel it's a more appropriate ride than the Acura since it is modified from the balancer to the rear diff cover. It hits the scales at about 4200lbs with driver and maybe has 240hp at the crank. Maybe it will be the slowest in Dd? Lol
1968 Plymouth Barracuda Formula S 340 with a 360
1997 Jeep Cherokee off road toy/driver. lifted, lockers, stroked 4.0
So.. if I have to drive my "back up", we could do some "wheelin" along the way!!
