3. (and the most missed) used to be we all pretty much respected each other, and enjoyed the competiton > now we fight, argue, accuse each other at every opportunity

i know im old, but it is a shame that i can hardly even recognize the class i have raced for over 35 years.

1. So you are saying anyone who builds a new car lacks hard work and ingenuity. Jack you and me both know that is a load of crap. You know you will not find any racers that work harder than Even smith, Ken Miele, Irvin Johns, Chris Holbrook and Myself. Or are these people slackers. And just so you know A-F Stock & Superstock have always been who has the most money.

2. Tear Downs you are correct 100%

3. People still respect each other. We all just have different options about stock and Superstock and where it is going. Greg Hill and Myself may differ when it comes to the new cars. But I still respect him as a racer and a friend.
