Thanks for the friendly welcome Liteweight,

Modern SS/AH is an incredible class from an engineering standpoint, but it has become very uneventful to watch ...almost like Pro Stock Lite. We've watched our beloved Mopar Super Stocks go through a bunch of transitions over the past 50 years, from factory exotica to early Pro Stock to hand me down bracket warrior to Concours restorations.

The ones that I dream about lately are the competitive cars from the late 70s / early 80s. Cars like Bob Marshall's A990 with factory trunk floor, notched frame rails, 14 x 32 slicks mounted on Super Trick wheels, simple roll cages and nosebleed wheelies from SS springs and ladder bars. I first fell in love with Super Stock back then and that era of car / driver made a profound change in my automobile tastes that will last forever.
