Default Question about True Street

Hopefully someone knows the answer...

I was reading the rules:

http://documents.holley.com/lsfest_2015_true_street.pdf

From what I gather, reaction time has no effect in this class, is that true?

Pretty sure it doesnt matter. True street you really arent racing anyone. Your just seeing what the average of the three back to back passes are.

Thanks for chiming in...Except now I read the rules some more and it looks like I can't have a Holley Hi-ram sticking out of the hood. Really?.....Really?????

true street has a strict closed hood policy. Hole in the hood probably violates that. However, I would see the true street race director about it. If your car is the cougar, that's really cool car.

Thanks! My car is the Cougar. They didn't have an issue with the Holly HI-Ram sticking out of the hood and no one complained. I managed a 13.029 average and got beat by a 13.003! Good times regardless.

Sounds close, but I got killed by a factor of 10! LOL

I felt pretty good about it considering my first two passes were 12.690 and 12.702. Too bad I wasn't running a 12.7 index...LOL...On the last pass I needed a 13.608 to get a perfect 13.000 so I left soft and ran a 13.695, which averaged to 13.029. It's all good.

My buddy TJ ran and won the 10.00 class in his gorgeous 67 Chevelle.
