Dan, I think we all lose sight of the changes in stock over the years. In the old days, mufflers, street tires, cam duration, disc brakes, cages & roll bars, fuel, removeable weight, batteries 2 or more and in the trunk, aftermarket pistons, .060, .070, .080 over, aftermarket seats, remove the emissions stuff, lighter radiators, roller rockers, lifters, pushrods, adjustable shocks, traction masters (anybody remember them), converters, transmissions, shifters, rear seat, spare tire & jack, fuel cells, and more that even I can't remember. So this didn't just start. And Mike, I think you got your years off a little on some of that stuff. I think this argument started the day after the Cajun Sportsnationals in 2009. Doesn't seem to have ended yet. Will be 4 years in March. It is entertaining. One thing for that has always been there, we as racers are better at cheating than the officials are at catching us. Hench the natural progression.
