Re: Trend in IHRA Stock Elim?
In this part of the world (Southern Ontario / Western New York) , it comes down to $. There is an outstanding Combo series up here. The Can-Am Stock Super Stock series offers 12 dates, with the longest tow to 3 different tracks hosting being 2 1/2 hours. I run a 3rd Gen Camaro in G/CM, best so far is a 10.95 @ 120 and from the time the car rolled in the shop to start the build, untill it was racing I have less than $20k invested. To try and run that car as a "traditional" stocker, with that performance, with that amount invested ...... anyone being honest knows it is not possible. So the short of it is......you do your research, you make your choice, the other guy does the same, and we should all be happy when another stocker gets built.

Re: Trend in IHRA Stock Elim?
How many people can chase around the country today, not to many,,
If your going to race close to home where it's IHRA & NHRA The Crate Motor is the only way to go, It's the only way a young racer can race now day's... They can't spend $ 35,000 Plus on a stocker. Look around at the races How many young people do you see ? NHRA may end up with Crate Motor's,, Parts are harder and harder to find for the BB & SB |
