I have a '11 Challenger B/SA and would love to run Top Stock with it. Why would you limit it to 2001 and older? I agree no FS cars but if it is in the classification guide and runs AA, A, B, C, or D why would you not let them in? When my son and I built this car he was more interested in the new style Challenger than a 70's model and it was cheaper to build. Everyone keeps talking about getting young people involved in our sport and then we alienate them by only alowing cars of our youth.

I was only able to watch Top Stock on a screen, it seemed like such a great class, UNTIL the new car manufacturers $$$ entered the equation, and started changing the formula.

Would you explain what happened. Until four years ago I was running E & F cars and didn't pay much attention to Top Stock.

If it does happen it will be interesting to see which of the 7.5-9.0 combinations have the steam.

As best I can remember Top Stock was: A,B,C, auto and sticks ran heads up first to the finish line at 8.25 lbs to NHRA Hp plus 170 lbs for driver. Removal of passenger seat was allowed to make min. weight. Five tenths pro tree. Nine inch tires. Pro ladder. Higher qualified had lane choice round one. The quickest car in round two had lane choice.
It was fun until GM got involved with IHRA and the Fast Burn engines. We had very little success and only won a round or two but the education and the fun was worth it. |
