21 out of the 70 cars in Stock Eliminator is a '69 Camaro or Nova.

Also, kudos to Markow, LaBrecque and Bruneau in Super Stock.

When was the last time a truck won Super Stock Eliminator?

OK stupid question here, but if the battery in the front is "fake" where is the "real" battery? What's this all about? Is there a light weight battery under a fake case?

Dummy batteries up front is nothing new, the real battery is usually in the trunk for better weight transfer on the launch.
A few guys even run 12 volt wires to these dummys in case they are voltage checked.
