Wow ! Thanks for that info !

It seems like a REALY stupid rule, knowing lots of guys would park their rig nearby & drive the car in.

It seems that in '72 NHRA did not want any serious Stock Eliminator cars. Instead, it appears that they only wanted a few local street legal cars at the events where they ran Stock.
