Please excuse me fellas, I'm not trying/wanting to change things for I have no dog in the fight. But I am building an entry and would just like to see Super/Stock racing still around when I get done. I don't have any hate or bottled-up anger at NHRA, IHRA, fuel cost, enhancements etc. I've got plenty eggs, and there all in different baskets. If Super/Stock is dead when I get there, I won't miss a beat. There's plenty I can do with my machine. As far as the economy, I see it as just having to put forth more effort to do something I like. I've worked two jobs my whole adult life, and am now retired from one of them. I will be bracket racing alot using a mule engine with simular power to get up to speed and comfortable in the seat. I gotta get used to looking thru the back window.

Dave, thanks for asking about the Corvette. I am currently repairing all the little stress cracks from over the years. I did some little "Bonneville" inhancements, not modifications to the factory body though. It's comming along and I can see a light at the end of the tunnel (and it's not a head light)LOL
