CLASS RACER FORUM - View Single Post - Joe Newbie, 20 Builds a "Stocker"' in 2023

I understand what you are getting at here and it is entertaining but why doesn't Joe Newbie do what a lot of us did, build a Stock legal bracket car and work at it a little at a time within his budget until he has something that is sub index, then he can switch over to class racing? He can race in the meantime until he gets to where he wants to be.

Another point, be a mentor to someone, I didn't have anyone to help me when I was starting out and spent years in the wilderness not spending money in the right places and not knowing the tricks to winning rounds.
