Drag racing, real street (modern street car) bracket ADVICE please

[martyspec]

Good evening gents, 

Regarding drag racing our GTRs non tech’d IHRA in Real street class under the modern street car ruling.  Has anyone done this successfully as the age limit is 2003 and newer to fall into the category.  The definition or a modern street car is one that was delivered from factory with a minimum of a driver’s airbag and 4 wheel disc brakes, OEM ABS system

The 33 Gtrs fit all these requirements and more so hoping there is a way for our cars to be defined as a Modern street car to be able to run faster times.  Below is some legislation from the IHRA book.  It does state 3 type of cars older than the date on the list but no GTRs.  Please post or pm any info.  

 

Thanks

Pretty clearly worded. I would say you are out of luck.
