Truth.

Its a tough sell to get outside racers into S/SS. At 22, I'm a rare exception but for the most part there aren't alot of new racers in the classes regardless of age. I bought my car about a year ago and have had a lot of fun running the class and have met a bunch of great people. I decided to go the stocker route because it was something dad had always kind of wanted to do but never did it and I thought it would be cheaper than getting into a 4-link dragster (not really sure what I was thinking there, lol). With entry fees and payouts what they are for divisionals and nationals, and the dwindling contingencies, it makes it even tougher. Atleast with a super class car you have the option to run local and big money bracket races.
