have you raced the baja 500 or 1000? have you won a national in stock?

I was interested in this thread until I saw 1320 Racer again. It's too bad. I think there would be a lot of good input on this website but people get turned away by the negativity from his/her mouth. I hope the original poster finds the info he is looking for. No, I won't reply and have a pissing match with 1320 Chaser.

I think by now, racers that actually have experience with stock and Superstock realize that his credibility is zero.

Pretty easy to ignore his comments.

Only class he has entered is Keyboard Stock/ Automatic

.Too bad he will never actually try stock or Superstock.

I am sure he is smart enough to do ok.

great to see you get 1 more post in for the year, maintaining your 2-4 post count for each of the last 4 years followed by not one for the 4 years after that, Bravo! Bottomline is you're not a contributor here just as you contributed nothing of relevance to this thread, only replying to comment about me.

Jim, I'm smart enough to know that a guy that can't past 2nd round in both classes either can't drive or both his cars are junk!

It is interesting how some people thinks they know something about everything, but when you read their posts it is clear they know nothing about anything. :eek:

The original question asked had something to do with just how much has changed in the NHRA rule book if a racer had a legal stocker but had been absent/distracted for ten years. Admittedly, I am just a photographer and my real focus is on the SS/AH class, but I do occasionally post pix of the stockers and super stockers on this website. I am spectacularly unqualified to comment on this question since everybody that has posted in the past three days knows the rule book better than me.

A few responses have addressed data acquisition and weather stations. Nobody has made mention that NHRA now considers aluminum radiators and aluminum racing seats to now be acceptable for stockers. Not required, but allowed.

So Ed, if we all take your advice and get rid of or change our Stockers and Superstockers to bracket cars and street cars won't that put your "buddy" Ken's website out of business?

Re: What has changed in Stock Eliminator since 2015?
 

So Billy, you too only replied to this thread to comment on my advice and opinions. You're part of the problem, not part of the solution!

My advice wasn't for "we all" my advice is for the OP who has not raced in 10 years and who's car is no longer competitive, if it ever was, an '81 Malibu in L and M/SA, despite what some here say.

That said, Ken is no more my buddy than you are. Ken and I are friendly and I know where he stands with my participation on his forum. This forum like NHRA Stock eliminator has moved on from what you think it should be, from how you think is should be run and will continue for some time with or without you. My 0.37 posts per day over the past 17 years will not be the reason this website goes out of business.

Re: What has changed in Stock Eliminator since 2015?
 

While we may not have all of the answers for the OP. We can still point out bad advice and opinions when we see it. Thank you Billy for doing that.
