I never understood the "1960 and newer" rule in Stock either. I think it had to do, at one point, there was a year rule that a car could not be x-years old to compete.

Also, I don't think it should stop at 1955 either. Why not ANY year car? Bret Kepner did a story in the mid 1990's on a car that competed in IHRA Stock. It was a 1950 Oldsmobile that ran, I believe, Z/SA. Any car of any year should be allowed to compete. Even though a lot of the older combinations may not be competitive, and hard/expensive to find parts for.

See you this weekend at Hagerstown Steve?
