Here's my 2 cents worth.. being a second generation racer I have to tell you with all the rules and stipulations that they put in place to be a "Class Racer " they are fast pushing my generation into other area's of the sport ( NMCA/ NMRA/ ADRL / Pinks All-Out). Being in the Mopar Performance parts business, I see and talk to a lot of guys my age 35 and younger and they are all saying the same thing. When I was growing up I lived to hear pops and my uncles tell stories of the like of Ronnie Sox , Bobby Warren , Harold Denton ,Melvin Yow, E.T Watson and all those guys @ the old Sanford Dragstrip or Kinston or EZ-Street ( Dunn Benson) in the hayday of Stk and Superstock. And when I got my Duster that was my intent was to follow in Pops and thoses guys footsteps, but I have to tell you I'm getting closer and closer to changing direction and looking to do something diffrent with my car. Not trying to make anyone mad, or cause any discontent, just telling you what's going on in my generation and if you guys want to see Stk/Superstock contiune to florish it needs to be more accessible and fesible. Again no ill feelings intended just my 2 cents
