So in your mind "Progress" means allowing engines, transmissions, and rear ends that were never available in a application fits the spirit of a "STOCK" class , against other cars that compete using the same factory installed components as millions of cars that anybody could drive off the showroom floor. AND allow engines with much more performance potential, and at a lower HP ratings, than the engines that similar cars that are actually sold to the public with ? THAT is your idea of "progress" in Stock Eliminator?
