From what you have been saying your car is going to be a lower class car, which will further limit your chooses. Anybody that has a serious car uses most of their time working on making the car faster and more consistent. Maybe you need to take a closer look at Super Stock and see that you have two types of racers; the serious ones and the also rans, then you can figure out which one you are. You can't worship two gods, either you are serious or you aren't.

Sorry, I did'nt mean to come off as complaining. I will be loving to compete with you, and just can't wait! I surely am not trying to offend any of the S,S/S racers here. I do have my idea of what it takes to win in S,S/S eliminator. What I do NOT have is daddy's nickel, or his or anyone elses racing experience to draw from. I have to learn it all by myself, and pay for it all by myself. And that's the way I like it, individual accomplishment. That's why I don't have a Cobalt (serious car), and thats why I'm not as concerned about how fast it is. I feel that the key to being competitive in Super/Stock Eliminator (not class) is consistancy (driver and car). And that means "seat time" to me. I don't need dyno time, I can evaluate my program directly from the time slip. Then make adjustments to the car and/or myself. Thats why this car is multi-faceted, to allow much more seat time in order to refine and polish my driving skills and car set-up quicker. Right, wrong, or indifferent, I am a "seat time" kinda guy, more than the "dyno time" kind.
You can draw a good game plan or play up on the board. But if you want to win, you gotta get your helmet on and get in the game!
