Yea, Thats why there should be two lists. One for the "Power Adder" cars and one for the "Naturally Aspirated" cars.

When more people realize how much more power the LS7 motors make n/a than the other LSX motors, and more start building naturally-aspirated LS7
F-bodys, there will be more n/a cars on the list. I've seen the #13 car on the current list run---pretty much a street car w/almost stock LS7 motor at about 3450 raceweight. It is just killer. (Lingenfelter shop motor.) WJ

No, it is called a LSX block and it's in there (GM)performance catalog. They do not put this engine in any car or truck.If you check out the latest GM hightech performance they have a big write up on it. The small deck version can be stroked to a 482 and the tall deck version can be stroked to well over 500 cubes, so they say in the write up

That would be a cool event. I thought I read something in a thread from GrannyShifting about possibly getting a race together.

just do a n/a and a power adder class.. that would suffice I'd think.

Even if leaving all cars in one class.. who cares... it would be a fun race anyway, not like winning it, even if that were possible, would make or break anyone's racing career LOL.

I agree.... there's a alot of bolton guys in here that will never see the light of day with a 25 car list.. even with a 100 car list they may have a harder time.

i also agree with don. dont even think you need to make a finite cap on it... just a list of everyone's times. although i do still support dividing it into N/A and power adders for the people that are indeed trying to compete with eachother.

Thats what keeps races from happening, too much breakdown.

Ill race my cam only stick car against ANY NA 346, and my chances wont be too bad

Make a list however long you want, but lists are no fun just internet braggin rights.

I think we'll do a 32 car ladder, LS1/LT1 Top Gun. Maybe DOT tires, tags, insurance necessary, or even 64 car field. What do you guys think
