I guess I pretty much agree with the majority here..
As a promoter of S/SS races,,, you do what you gotta do to build up the purse.
First question I'm always asked it "What does it pay to win?"
I totally understand Mike's position.

I've raced with the N/SS guys...Nice cars ...good racing,.. but to me , it seems like there's something missing between the rounds...You can't go ask someone how they finesse a 2bbl combination to run in the summertime...or what low gear gives the best 60', etc.
But that's just me. I enjoy the technical, hands- on aspect of real S/SS racing.

On the other hand , Jacko is right about Lee Sherman..He hated the .90 cars
He said it was like giving professional baseball teams 4 outs in an inning..
What would happen to the quality of the teams?

Carry on....
