Interesting Thoughts-- Future of Stk/SS

I don't usually post much, i try to sit back and take in the knowledge and opinions of the more seasoned racers, however i feel like i'm in a similar situation. I too, am a second generation racer, though a good bit older than your son, however my father has pretty much always raced class. I'm in the same boat as your son, still trying to learn all i can. i started by bracket racing our Super Stocker and just recently participated in my first Super Stock race. While i didn't win the race, i did get my first SS round win, and against a tough competitor to boot and i felt more accomplished in that than in any bracket round win i had gotten. As for the teardowns, I 100% believe in them, even though i would probably not be able to accomplish it by myself yet. But i will still be ready at any time. Fortunately, as racers, we have a tight nit group of friends who i believe would be happy to help get me through it.
