John, I raced back in the 70's and 80's. All I have to do is look at how fast the cars are going today compared to the good old days when Stock was actually Stock not just a class that we run. I think 95% is on the low side.
We have 170 mph Stockers and a few racers are worried about 200lb spring pressure.
