My dad told me along time ago "Jake" (that's what he calls me) you can't put a price on entertainment. Well dad races for money & dose quite well @ the local track 5 miles away.....he was 8th in the IHRA Div. 3 points in 2006. But anyway I love class racing...& not just stock. I like SS TS TD I would love to have a S/ST to beat on week in week out but I have a stocker. 1989 I had a Nova drove to the track opened up the headers put on slicks & ran 8.10's in the 1/8......21 years later with a pick-up & enclosed I unload & run 7.90's 1/8mile???? went from a gutted Nova with a 350 to a 3600lbs Cutlass with a 307 but running about the same times....so it's all in what ya want. The MAIN thing is have fun! That's the reason we ALL started doing this!
