My first racing job that payed was crewing on a Super Gas car when the class first came out. I loved Super Gas! In my opinion, the class has gone down a road that is not good for the spectators to watch. That is my opinion only and I will not own a super class car based on that opinion. I'm sure its a fun class to race in, but not for me. Different discussion for a different board...
If we could ever get a seperate organization running for Stock and SS, I see T/S and T/D as the classes to run with it. Also NSS as there are some organizations out there that know how to put the show on. And that is what it's about for the spectator. An entertaining show…

I may have gotten a little side-tracked... hehe, was just brainstorming...
IMO, Stock and Super Stock have gotten way outta hand, but thats what happens when aftermarket companies start lobbying NHRA/IHRA to make certain parts legal(for a fee, of course), and then everyone has to buy them to be competitive. Believe me, id like nothing more than to see STOCK/S-Stock flourish forever... and get the popularity it once had. WHat happened to SS&Drag Illustrated? Car Crap and Super Chevy and the likes could do more articles on S/SS cars, not just over-chromed new cars with 7 stage nitrous systems that never get used. If i ever get to the place that i can afford to run in CLass, i would be more than willing to go to the WalMart type parking lots for tech/show...anything to draw interest and talk about mine and
everyone else's cars... that is part of it... nothin better that someone wanting to know whats goin on under the hood, or whatever... TV/Mags/Internet/Car Shows/Contests are some good ways to promote(to answer the question at hand

)
