Pure Stock would also allow new brands to enter our sport, such as Toyota, Suburu,Nissan and Honda, all have great sport compacts and full size automobile that will surprise most muscle cars of old. Don't forget that this generation has been bread on four cylinders spec cars(tuners). I just took one of my daughters new car, a Toyota Corolla xrs with 158hp and 165pds pf torque and I can tell you that it leaves faster and is alot more safe than my old Road Runner, 1/4 mile time was 14's all day. Nascar has understood this and has decided to go forward with the times and sine most are now built in North America there isn't any rreason not to enjoy taken them to the races .Jack since you're downsizing you could have your brand new Challenger or mustang to race on week-ends and enjoy driving it to work during the week. Just last year I had a Suburu wax by my Challenger. I would love to see new street cars starting at the divisional level. One can only hope and dream that NHRA are listening. Claude
