Default Re: cost of stock/super stock racing?

Depends on how much someone wants to spend I suppose.
Right now, there's no limit on how much a person can sink into one.
$ 100K for a bracket racing stocker ? Plenty of those out there.

On the other hand... if someone is just trying to get into the program on a budget, the entry level class is IHRA Pure Stock.

This is my first year in PS and I wanted to see if I liked running a class car without commiting a bunch of my retirement funds on building a NHRA Stocker.

So far I have a little over $ 4,500 in the car with used parts ( including the 3,500 I paid the car lot for it) and it just barely runs under the I/PS index.
O.K. with me as I can upgrade the Mustang slowly as disposable income is available and hopefully make it a full Stocker.
