    Under the major sanctioning bodies, I don't think "Gas Coupe Sedan" classes have even existed for decades. They were basically replaced by funny car.

    Today the best you can hope for is PRO Mod, like this '57 Buick runs. That does offer the chance to use early body styles. IHRA broadcasts the events with this class included.

    IHRA coverage is on the "Speed Channel". On my DirectV that is 607. You may have to check with your provider to see if they have it. The IHRA website should show when programs are aired.

    There are still altered events, such as the one we have in Tucson every summer, but I don't know of any that are aired on television. I think there is one in Idaho, and the upper midwest. It is more of a local track promotion. You could go to "Awful Awful Fuel Altereds" on the internet for history and event details.
