Competition begets competition, it?s all relative to what we do. I?m guessing it?s the homologation of parts making a Toyota legal in Stock Eliminator that some folks don?t like. There must be something legal for it to happen, which apparently it?s just that?going to happen. I doubt GUMP would invest in it, if he didn?t feel it was possible. Sub 9 sec runs have become a norm, it?ll just be weird seeing a Toyota Supra at or near the top of the sheet.

Seeing a Toyota No.1 in the Stock Eliminator qualifying sheet is one thing, however seeing a Toyota (anything) in the winner's circle is something totally different! I'll tell you this, with all of the crap I've read about Toyota's, Nissan's, Subaru's, and Mitsubishi's being better vehicles than our American branded vehicles, I'm still waiting for one of them to get their FWD compacts to come out and play with my Z24, Dennis's Dodge Shadow, and Billy's Cavalier, Brent and Gary's Charger's, and Mark's Escort! Moreover, "IF" they'd survive an elimination round against any of our cars, there's still a slew of Camaros, Challengers, Mustangs, and many other RWD muscle cars, that they'd have to survive to impress me!
How about it Toyota, where's the FX16, or the Supra's? Honda, where's your CRX's, Accords, Prelude's, and Acura Integra's? Subaru, you too....where's your performance cars? Mitsubishi tried once, come back and try again? While we're at it, let's get the Hyundai's and Kia's into the mix as well? European muscle cars in Stock? How about it Volkswagen, BMW, Porsche, Audi lovers? Let's make it international! I'll put my dollars in American branded cars!!!!
I'm a little late to this dance, because I had some significant family losses these past two months, but I'm back now, and as soon as I can build back up some vacation time, I'm heading back to the track, and definitely looking forward to 2026, now that I have my parents as heavenly angels to watch me!
