I've raced about 5 complete seasons since 04 . Last year with a new car with a stickshift transmission and had none. If I had gotten past first round at Indy and the other guy and gotten past his we would have raced second round . About 8 heads ups. I think I'm about even in them. I'm not that great of a driver like yourself, so I choked in 3 of them and got out ran the other time. I'm not a good example because I don't race enough or go many rounds like most guys on this site. Ask Lee Zane about his season last year. I think at Leabanon he had 3, would have been 4 if I hadn't gotten past the guy in the previous round. Is this a good enough answer for you?

Last 10 years 1 Lost
Last 16 Years Lost all three
Never won class in the last 16 years except the 98 Winternationals. Special circumstances.

I decided that in order to get my car back on the track I needed to drop the SS chassis idea since it has taken 4 years to get nowhere with the shop. So I've ordered new Stocker suspension and slicks and even bought back my old stocker engine. It will hit the track this spring.
Three factors lead to this:
1) lack of progress despite $$ spent
2) roller rockers allowed
3) the amount of cars in D/S vastly increases over SS/H. And if we can get the other 95 or so D/SA cars to compete heads-up against D/S, I'm that much happier. I'm a Class racer because I strive for the best and heads-up runs tells me where I'm at. If I looked at Class racing as a bracket race only, I would have stopped racing and saved myself a bundle of cash a decade ago.
