might want to check out the C.A.R.S. racing series. they race full size production trucks, most are shortbeds. the only other thing i know about the series is a 305ci displacement rule.

love the racing, i've only been able to see trucks once and that was in South Dakota... in my current locale, all they have is a 1/8th strip about 35 mins away and a 1/2 oval about 1 1/2hrs away so i dont get a chance to get out there much.
