Back in the older days at Kinston Drag Strip we used to run a class called showroom stock....while the reg classes competed in a semi-pro type race ..we would also let anyone that had a car that drove in on the street and would figure out of the NHRA/IHRA class book and would run as a show room stock...My dad had a 62 ols full size convertible big block car and always got beat by a 59 chevy 4-door 348 big block...my dad used to get mad everytime..if the car was figured j/sa ,you would mark the window and then put a circle around the class #'s showing it was in showroom stock.....
