Actually Dan we got about 23-24mpg but the AC wasn't on since it was cool that night.

I applaud and appreciate Dan you wanting to add cars and new blood to the sport as you think outside of the box for new ways to attract racers. It's sincerely appreciated and as a fellow Pure Stocker I'm right there with you bud!

Waiting on Mr. Baker to get back to me with cam specs so that I order a new Bullet cam and add headers when it's apart this summer. 26 more days until summer vacation!!!
Thanks Steve:
Going to keep poking here and there.
A conversation with the Webmaster has given me a few ideas.

Undertand this..there are a heck of a lot more kids graduating from High School then in our time. There are a ton of Foreign makes and there will be a percentage of interested racers to take on the Pure Stock Challenge.

Bragging Rights are Bragging Rights...AND My $1 Bet is still on !!

I bet if when properly marketed they will come.
AND
willnig to put my 40 years of Busienss Development to work to promote Pure Stock...

IMHO Pure Stock is the modern day version of Junior Stock but that is another conversation but with long tested rules.

AND I do remember FLAT TOWING and using Towing Hubs.
Which I still have and need to figure out how to rebuild.

Bit of my history. I am a business start up specialist. Know how to start and build successful businesses.

FWIW I started a Corporate Soccer League in 1986 and it is still going on today in Florida and built $multi-million businesses for other companies and Started mine in 1993 , celebrating our 20th year in business.

If you want to ping me at work 301-217-0425 x 400

My intent is to multiply the interest in Pure Stock and do it adding Foreign makes. Hopefully antagonize and provoke a few US makers and dealerships, shops and gas stations to start.

Time to break the mold and guarantee the American Motor Head Teeth will come out to show these Foreign Makes what Drag Racing is all about.

IT is all about the Attitude !!

One thing that will happen ...more heads up bragging rights racing, controversy, griping, and all that goes with a competitive organization.
AND if popular enough local racing will start up again.

Tar Heal knows about our ISSCA Impala Club and how dynamic it is, even today it is amazingly huge, despite being a dominant GM B-Body organization.

ALL help, ideas, support and criticism are appreciated.

Bring it ON !

Because I am .. !!

Dan
