Glenn save some for me! This is certainly one of the more amusing threads in a while especially with opinions coming in from people that have not raced in both classes. That being said I have raced in both SST and Stock. I believe the intent of both was for them both to be entry level but for various reasons neither are now. The expense of Stock has turned it into anything but entry level and various rule changes and technology has made it even worse. Same goes for SST, with the invention of the throttle stop SST went from taking your 10.70 bracket car to you better bring a purpose built 9.50 or better car if you want to be competitive.
So the real answer here is there are no entry level categories anymore and eventually that will be an issue in keeping all of these categories alive.
