NOW in superstock this year alone my son has had at least 5 and lost all 5 in 1st round.
Had a certain driver wait to see what class we got in and then he would turn his tech card in after ours... Then play the ladder (and so would we).....Told us he needed to make rounds and i guess we helped him.....That is one reason why you will not see the superstocker next year (at least not in superstock).,the ole saying you have to PAY to PLAY is very true,we just got tired of paying and not playing.My son will take this car and move back into his comfort zone in racing ,which is pro tree heads up throttle-stop racing( 2 IHRA world championships and numorous div titles) and big $$$ bracket racing. And i know for a fact he will be turning on a lot more W's..........We tried ,we liked ,we could not afford it..How's that for honesty ?
I still love class racing and always will.......
"Told us he needed to make rounds"! Don't we all!!! That is pure BS if you ask me.
I haven't tried to play the ladder game. Don't even know how. I don't get enough seat time, so I have to make the best of the couple time trials.
