So you wanna build a stocker!?!?

There is a place for pure stockers and/or foreign cars to race.....it is called bracket racing on Friday nights. Pure Stock was tried by NHRA in the early 70's and a huge failure. Not many fans interested in 19 second pure stockers, you see faster street rods on the street.

And Dan, (Dan Quayle notice the correctly spelled word POTATO) If you are old enough to remember, Dan Qualye spelled potato correctly and then when the teacher raised a "cue card" with it spelled Potatoe.......In stead of picking on Quale, why not the teacher of our children?

Dan Quayle's 'Potatoe' Incident – 1992
A minor slip-up by Vice President Dan Quayle hatched a frenzy and a long-running joke. Quayle led a spelling bee for sixth-grade students while visiting an elementary school in New Jersey in 1992. Working from an inaccurate flash card prepared by a teacher, he corrected William Figueroa, 12, when the child spelled "potato" on the blackboard – making the boy add an unnecessary "e" at the word's end.
