OK Jeff better late than never!

Very well said Mr. Miller.

I remember when I started racing stock in 1978. We had stock water pumps, stock rockers that we would put push rods through, Roades lifters to get some bottom end. Original transmissions, original brakes that took both feet to stop. My first Ritter and Weber engine dyno tested cost 2500.00.
When Super Stock was at a National event. The, what I called the tender fender cars were lined up for a great show in the pits alone. Most cars came to the track on open trailers. You would stop at a gas station and people would ask you where your headed, how fast and tell you "I had one". Things have changed a country mile but still enjoy trying to beat the fast guy in class and surely the cars in original trim.
