Hello, my name is Jim, I live Ina small town northwest of Dallas. In a previous life I worked in a machine shop/fab shop, and did some drag racing and wrenching on some NHRA race cars. I got the aviation bug, sold all my racing stuff and dumped all my money into flying. After raising a family, 25+ years at an airline, I have the bug bad again.
I had a 2009 Z06 that I drove at the Texas mile a year ago , and now have a 2015 Z06 that I drove this past October. Instead of cutting that car up and doing a bunch of mods, I want to build a car specific for LSR.
I have a 1963 Nova convertible body, that is rotted out pretty good. I am building some rails for it, have an Alston front end, etc and so instead of making it a street car, I want to use it for LSR.
I have looked through the the 2015 SCTA rule book, and can't figure out what class, if any it would fall into.
I want to add a funny car style roll cage, an aluminum tonneau cover over the passenger compartment, and race it without the convertible top.
Any help on this would be appreciated, thanks, Jim
