CLASS RACER FORUM - View Single Post - Writing a grant to buy a Stocker for our HS

Thanks for all of the comments and positive response guys. They're truly appreciated. I'm still waiting for the grant coordinator to sign-off on it but from talking to everyone involved initially they seem to be excited and see the benefit of the program. I plan to pull up this forum when I personally meet with the person that will approve it.

We are in East Texas about an hour from Ennis and Crandall. I was thinking we could run NHRA and IHRA but I see that Crandall isn't hosing a points meet this year. We'll see about that when the time comes.

Bernie ... your car is exactly what we are looking for. I raced a '95 Impala SS in Pure Stock when I lived in NC so I'm fairly comfortable with the LT1. I was wanting an EFI car so that the students could see how it was tuned from the laptop. I've been looking at Dean's '98 Firebird and there is a also a '94 Camaro stick car on racingjunk now. I'm sure it will be after Christmas until I get the go-ahead so I'll try to call you when we get back from break to discuss the program and your car if it's still available.
