Nostalgia super stock
National association
May 9, 2008
Mission
The mission of the Nostalgia Super Stock National Association is for
it to be a national rule-making, administrative, sanctioning and
educational authority in order to protect and preserve the traditional
form of Nostalgia Super Stock racing as now commonly practiced.
In addition, the NSSNA seeks to provide a stable format in which to
facilitate and organize the construction and/or modification of
historically accurate NSS vehicles and support all the events in which
these vehicles compete.
However, the NSSNA is not to be involved with the financial promotion
and support of any specific event or race other than its own national
event, the Dave Duell Nostalgia Super Stock Nationals.
Eliminator Description
As administered by the NSSNA, Nostalgia Super Stock is an index-style
foot brake only eliminator for the year models, body styles, and
engine combinations which accurately represent those American-built
cars that raced in the Factory Experimental and Super Stock classes of
the early and mid-1960s.
Some exceptions in the authenticity of these cars will be allowed only
at the discretion of the NSSNA. Among those exceptions, but not
limited to, are factors concerning safety, equality in performance,
availability, and durability.
Classification will be based upon a visual inspection and an elapsed
time range. No modifications which alter the car from factory stock
are permitted unless they are specifically allowed in these rules.
Sandbagging, excessive braking near the finish line or excessive mph
for a given elapsed time are all subject to possible disqualification.
Nostalgia Super Stock is an all-run field and will compete on a
National Hot Rod Association sportsman-type ladder. The eliminator
will qualify by elapsed time closest to class index, be paired
according to qualifying positions, and then advance to eliminations.
All participants in Nostalgia Super Stock must have a valid elapsed
time recorded to be placed into eliminator competition.
Communications
The NSSNA shall establish a communications office to dialog with
racers, race track owners/promoters, other racing organizations, and
the general public concerning general policies, rules and procedures.
The office shall use Evansville Chrysler as its official Internet web
site and create and maintain such documents and records sufficient to
accomplish its mission. The office shall publish rules and race
procedures, subject to revision as determined by the NSSNA.
Questions
and/or other communications should be directed to:

Fundamental Principles
In order to accurately preserve the history of traditional Super Stock
racing to the best extent possible, the following general principles
are considered to be permanent, non-negotiable and are to be supported
by the specific rules at all times.
1.
Historical accuracy – American manufactured/factory
created/supported makes/models for drag racing competition
2.
Multiple carburetion preferred
3.
Cast intake manifold required, if available
4.
Maximum rear slick width designation 10.5W
5.
Footbrake only – no transmission brake allowed
6.
No electronic elapsed-time bracket racing aids allowed
7.
Class/index designations required – no elapsed-time bracket racing
dial-ins allowed
Open/Closed Events
The NSSNA rules and race procedures are intended to be the national
standard used in open competition, defined as any event at any
sanctioned track at which any racer is eligible to compete upon
payment of the entry fee and found to be in compliance with NSSNA
rules upon completing a technical inspection.
However, the NSSNA recognizes that other clubs, associations, etc.
may organize closed and/or special events such as match racing,
exhibitions and the like for their own purposes and implement their
own rules and race procedures for those kinds of activities.
For the sake of clarity and consistency, these groups are
encouraged to use NSSNA rules and procedures whenever possible.
Appeal/Waiver Process
Any racer shall have the right to appeal a decision of the NSSNA by
submitting a written application to the rules committee within 30 days
of the initial determination, defining the reasoning by which the
initial determination should be changed.
In addition, the NSSNA and its rules committee reserves the right
to issue appropriate waivers at its sole discretion.

SUMMARY
Using the current NMCA rules
as a model, the previous sections were written by a six-racer
committee whose members have extensive experience in Nostalgia Super
Stock racing, including the national event series of the NMCA and
Goodguys Associations, the regional event series of the Chrysler
Classic events and also regional clubs and associations such as
Nostalgia Super Stocks Inc. and the Texas Outsiders.
In addition, these rules and
procedures reflect almost 20 years of both development and tradition
in NSS racing. The committee is confident these guidelines will be
able to competently administer NSS racing both now and into the
future.
The committee includes Mark
Artis of the Texas Outsiders, Doug Duell of the Dave Duell Classic,
John Grinwald of Nostalgia Super Stocks Inc., Clay Kossuth of the
Texas Outsiders, Jim Netherland of the NMCA series and Bob Wilkiewicz
of Nostalgia Super Stocks Inc.
