Do you really need to go fast to enjoy S,S/S racing?

Diversity is great in this class, I enjoy it.

The most exciting races I've ever had were having to spot somebody 4+ seconds. Lane I specifically remember racing you at Denver several years ago. You dialed up a ton right before we ran. There's nothing as eye opening as coming up on a car with around 40 mph and watching him dump you. The Wilwoods got abused that lap

I would vote a strong no re speed and enjoyment. My slow truck may top out at 110 or 111 with a tailwind, but on a marginal or cold track, slow=safe and more consistent. 9 second stockers at 40 degrees is a bit of a stretch on the enjoyment scale. More speed is fun though, especially those 130+ blasts, but not needed to enjoy. Its just as fun to be a 10 second vega with your 15 something towpig as it is a 9 second stocker.
