Assistance with correctly labelling (decaling) a track racer

[Drake69]

I have a new project I'm working on which I'm making into a track car. It's a '66 Mustang GT350-H Revell kit and I'm making it into a "Saturday Nite Special" racecar. Keeping the car pretty much stock except for deleting the chrome bumpers, so I have no idea what "class" I would be in. I do have a series of sponsor decals for each side of the car plus a sheet of window decals that would be the competition lettering. I have Pro, Street, Stock, Heavy, and one other, plus the track times for drag strips. First, I need assistance on understanding the different competition levels, and second, would I need to include any of that for an oval racer?

I can't really help much in the way of the classes you mentioned, but as for track times, if you are building the Mustang as a dirt tracker, you would not use the time decals. The dirt trackers I've seen around my area and that friends ran very rarely even have windshields, just some screen mesh to cover the driver's side of the windshield opening so large debris does not enter the opening and hit the driver.

As for the contingency sponser decals, which would be the small decals like "Fram", "Crane Cams", "Edelbrock", and so on, in the case of NASCAR and NHRA, those teams usually get money or other kickbacks from those companies to display those decals on the car. In the case of the local dirt tracker, that isn't the case, they usually are from parts that came with those decals in the part's box. It would be entirely up to you to add them and how many to use, but I would suggest only a few and not the entire front fender style like you'd find in a NASCAR kit.
