"Hey Road Agent", The VW drag bugs owned the NHRA "H/Gas" and "I/Gas" classes long before your "IMPORT" 1948 Anglia's came to the gasser classes, LOL.

They would still be competitive today, but NHRA got tired of them winning and increased their weight penalty.

A VW street car and driver at 1900#, with a 2332 cc engine (about 144 cubic inches) will run low 11's using using one power adder of about 100HP shot of NOS, or a small turbo.

I guess we all start, "AND END" in diapers! LOL

PS, one of my early drag cars was a '51 Thames panel truck built to run in AHRA-NHRA H/GAS with a 300 ci FORD six cyl and a Henry's nine inch rear end. It was the damm VW based gassers that blew the class index away before I could afford to finish the truck in 1967. LOL

With out NOS that car would run in Competition Eliminator. The car is to slow for the index and probably wouldn't get through tech. Class Racing is different than Bracket Racing. In Comp you run in pounds per cubic inch.

I don't think you can make tech with no front brakes in super street . Super street runs on a 10.90 index.
