Default IHRA Class rules?

Where can I find the current IHRA class rules? Their website sucks and doesn't even have a pointer to where to get their current rulebook.

TIA,

BS

If you're a member of IHRA, you can view the 2008 rulebook online:

Cordova's rules compliment & sometimes supercede the IHRA rules:

Thanks...What I really want to know is what class my car can compete in based on IHRA rules. In NMCA, I can compete in Super Street class....

Your car is legal for high 6's? Or do you mean NHRA Super Street?

No. I was reading through the class regulations (NMCA) and that is what my car would fit into. I didn't look at what ET that class was rated for. I'll be running a stock bodied car (2005 GTO) with a 460cid LSX based nitrous motor, turbo 400 with a transbrake and planning on running 10.5" tires. I'm quite a bit heavier than the base weights specified but that is where I see my car fitting.

I'm open to suggestions here, I just want to know where it fits.

TIA,

BS
