If you HAVE to BUY EVERYTHING, then it costs about as much to run G as it does A. If you BUY EVERYTHING, what work do you have pride in? Your phone skills?
The reason I said what I said is because Top Stock DOES work, racers DO like it, and so do FANS.Top Super Stock works too. The cars are already there. Art already had his cars. Depillo already had his. It gives the guys who can't run SS/AH a chance to have the same fun those guys have at Dutch or at Indy.
The problem with your position is that you want something that can't be done. You CAN'T include EVERYONE. About 4 classes is as much as you can combine. And that is a stretch.
No one said we didn't want Jr. Stock too. But we have to START somewhere. So we chose Top Stock and Top Super Stock. Further, you can't just post on an Internet bulletin board and expect things to happen. You have to actually DO SOMETHING. Well, no one else is, so a few of us are trying to do something.
There's NOTHING stopping someone from putting together a Jr. Stock program in Division 2. All you have to do is take a look at the successful program in Division 1, and Dave will help you. Then go out and try to get people to put up a little money. Go ask NHRA and the host track for permission. And finally, go out and try to get some racers to run it.
If you can't run Top Stock, or Top Super Stock, then don't bitch at Dick for trying to make the class work. Or Woodro, or Art, or me, or whoever else is either organizing it, or winning it. Go out and DO something. Go try to organize Jr. Stock if that's your passion, or where your car fits. We damned sure won't try to stop you, and if you're willing to work with us, we may even be able to offer a little help.
