There is a huge difference.
There maybe $3k difference in some cars. Mostly lower class.
However it is the legacy costs such as fuel and racing seat belts.
Full Stocker engines can run $10-$15k.
Got to match that up with a proper trans, rear, headers, roll bar..etc, etc, etc.
There seems to ba rival of more racers running Pure Stock.
If NHRA adds it you will see a large shift.
They are less stressed and more reliable inthe long run.
