There are 2 sides to the story regarding "Stock" eliminator, those with older cars that "grew up" in stock eliminator, and those that embrace the new cars.

Bottom line, times change....either you stay up with the times or get left behind.

NHRA has specific rules that allowed the manufacturers to build the new cars for stock.
They are legal Glendora approved it .

Now, as far as stock goes, I can cite a couple of things that you stock vets can't argue with;
Can you fit a 9x30 tire on a 67 nova for example, without modifications that are not permitted under the rules? NO
Did your cars come from the factory with hoods that have a 1" gap at the back? NO

If you disagree with these 2 points, I can get really serious about your beloved older stockers.

See you at the races,
Wayne Kerr
