Default Drag Radial Classes?

First off I know this technically isn't the "correct" forum but it seemed fitting. My question is simple. What are the Drag Radial classes? And does anyone have a link to their rules? I have been Google-ing for like 3 hours and haven't found exactly what I'm looking for yet. NMCA and NHRA. Basically say I have a Fox Coupe, 450+ CI LSx Motor (RHS/Dart/ERL), Twin 88s or 91, Methanol, Stock Suspension, Glide, What class would that setup run in? This is by no way shape or form my car lol. Just hypothetical.

There are so many classes depending on what area you live in. Most use either the 275 or 315 radial. Most are going to X275 rules by John Sears and some Outlaw 275 races mostly on the east coast right now.

The car you described would be an Outlaw Drag Radial car (315 radial)

Chevy Performance LSX Challenge ODR Rules:
http://www.nmcadigital.com/cat/class...g%20Radial.pdf

Note that you can only run a GM-bodied car in this series. No Mustangs.

There are other drag radial series...

X275 John Sears
Milan Race Warz, Friday nights, 315's, simple rules.

I help with Andy's ODR LSX car, good times. Build a GM body car with twin 76's or 88's and come out and grab a lane.

Most classes will be gasoline powered as well so pay attention to the rules before you select your fuel and intercooler systems.
