Paul:

At New York National Speedway in Center Moriches, LI.

It was an AHRA track, but I think that is immaterial - the 343 package was a
Mopar offering (albeit perhaps dealer installed, but I am not sure).
Nonetheless, it was recognized at the sanctioned level by NHRA, I am sure.

Why anyone would give you grief about your 300C is beyond me. There are many
other cars that were far more "borderline" as far as NHRA or IHRA rules than
a 300C!

WHERE was this allowed to Run In "Stock" class???

NHRA and IHRA ( mid 70's )
They took one look under the hood of my 300-C and Automaticlly I was placed
in
SuperStock. There was No convincing the track folks that the car was Stone
stock, No Optional under the hood treatments.
