It is nice to see 18 cars entered at Gainesville in Factory Stock. There was
concern that some had migrated to Factory X, and they both might be
watered down and have a troubled future. F/S is a great competitive
class, that is almost affordable. I don't know how many competitors we
will see in Factory X, with the Stanfield's concentrating on Pro Stock,
and Lenny Lottig and Rick Hord's cars for sale. Very exciting class,
but with chassis that cost more than a Pro Stock car, it is out of reach
for all but a few select racers.
