Pure Stock making a come back!

[Dan Fahey]

WOW just saw Chris Kilraine H/PS Mustang posted on Facebook.
Very clean and fast ... !

New entries for next year will be Dave Hoffer building a F-G/PS Aspen
and Frank Meyer building a 95 Firebird for B-C-D/PS

Saw the beautiful A/PS Plymouth of Phillip B(sorry I do not know how to spell his name properly) at Empire.

Met a lot of people at Empire discussing future of Pure Stock.

Looking at creating a Pure Stock Facebook page.

Also want to create contact list with all the Pure Stock Owners in the country.
Name, address, email, Car.
Have most pictures but new ones would be cool.
Then distribute contract list to the members.

Keep the hope alive...

Just remember Pure Stockers are PURE

Just remember Pure Stockers are PURE

Till some joker learns how to manipulate the system, then you'll have P/S cars with 14X32s,blowers etc.

There were 3 Pure Stockers at Class Nationals THis year. I expected to see a few more than that. My daughter and I had a Great time.

There were going to be 4, but during testing 3 weeks ago, my Pure Stocker ran a tick over the index on a testing day with 89 deg. and moderate humidity at legal weight.
It was consistent, but ran 14.56-14.59 in the heat on a 14.55 index.

So I felt it would not be competitive unless it could run at least .15 under index.

Then... the weather was perfect at the Class Nationals and we had fantastic air for the event. ( face palm) lol

Probably would have run 14.40's at National Trail.

Would have supported another Pure Stock Challenge but IHRA ProAm was at Empire at same time.

Last year had 3 A/PS and 3 D/PS cars competing..plus 5 others racing.

Maybe next year.
Seems if you put a little skin in the game the Pure Stockers come out to play.

As for blowers ..do not think that will happen.
Unless maybe a certain turbo 4 Tbird decides to run PS..
Right now keeping a Stock Spring is our saving grace.
For all the conversation it keep our cars reliable!

Sure would like to up the $$pot and get help from others next year.
We got a lot of good press last year!
