I like Scotts car too...because it's against the norm However, Alex you had my tummy hurting for laughing so hard!!!!

Seriously though, I've been calling out the import lovers to Stock Eliminator for years, and I'm still waiting! If they (to borrow from Toyota's commercials for their pre-owned vehicles), are "the best new cars, make the best used cars", then they must be THE BEST RACE CARS TOO RIGHT? COME ON OUT AND PROVE IT TOYOTA & HONDA, the BIG THREE (FWD OR RWD), ARE WAITING....I WANT TO BE IN THE FIRST RACE IN THE FIRST ROUND AGAINST ONE OF THEM TOO!!!!

Maybe someone is putting one of them together for the Phoenix national/divisional races? If this is true, me and my fwd Janesville, Ws., (more American than any Tundra out on the road), Cavalier are ready and will be at "Wild Horse Pass Motorsports Park" the weekend of the divisional, and I sure hope I get to race against one of them in round one. By the way, I'm still running the engine put together by Verle Stevens for stocker racing 18yrs ago....oh and most of my engines parts were OEM, which means the same parts that the UAW put in my car 28yrs ago, are still working great (as is Verle's excellent job of engine building)!!!! So much for that theory that back in the '80's and '90's the import guys built better quality cars than we Americans did....funny thing is I seldom see any of those so-called better built imports on the roads here in Phoenix, but I sure see a lot of the big Three's products fwd and rwd...go figure!!!
