I think you, me and just about every other FS car out there are not happy. No point in owning a fast stocker at this event, since you just have to slow it down with tune up or pile on rear weight. A couple of squirts of **** and some rosin with a mop doesn't do a damn thing when you can't ROLL through it. The Challenger has not spun in over a year, and even moving over 18" there was nothing left. The highest car count class at the track gets the worst treatment yet 17 COMP cars get an hour of scrapping and dragging. It is NOT the track either....In 2 weeks, cars with 3000 hp and a street legal radial tire will try and flip over on the starting line at the Yellow Bullet Nationals. The Cecil staff takes the time to allow each class the best surface possible. Take a look at round 1 on how many cars spun. Yes we are all on the same surface but all stockers are not the same, some can run FASTER than super Gas and Super Comp but with half the tire and not being allowed to put rubber down even up to where the rear tire will be. Just allowing that would be a great help.

In their defense they tried to fix it - probably 10 times they sprayed (and dusted - but never dragged ) during that first round but to no avail ..........This is Stocker racing but we spun like Funny Car ! ! ! !
Happy camper I'm not .......can you tell????
