In my opinion the only thing wrong with stock is perception. Stock is faster and cooler than EVER. ALL racing from junior dragsters to Top fuel evolves and for the most part gets better.
I absolutely feel for the guy that spent $31,000 on his 1970's carbed Stocker engine that does not qualify where he or she expects. However the Hatred being spewed at the really good guys who stepped up to NEW hardware has to stop!!
PLEASE remember the Pony Express died the day after the Telegraph wire was stretched across this country. Not because the young men on horseback were bad guys or didn't work hard. It got replaced because of efficiency!
The current situation in Stock today is NO different than being at INDY in 1995 when we witnessed Tim Ferguson pounding the tree in G/sa all day only to run Woodro in the final!
