Div 6. I again state that making a class of generic cars, with spec motors and trans allowed would give all the people who HATE the factoring a place to race based on SKILL and driving. Everyone else could watch it become the way to race and join or continue to feel inadequate under the AFHS system.(Glad I don't still have one) One legal Mod type car and motor and you cut the cost too. LB/CUBIC Inch in a.......... Chassis. Max cube and carb specs too. I would race again if it happens.
No more injected 305 taxi motor versus a plain old chevy.

Dick, so your proposal only considers a specific generic model of a car?

Everyone has a like for the choice and brand of cars they like to race in Super Stock.
There are people that like to race a station wagon, others a sedan, etc...

If you are proposing putting a limit and utilizing a specific model of car, the proposal is not going to fly with the racers. The class was built on cars many of us have or drive daily, many of them with nostalgic memories.

There is a limit, it's called the classification guide!

Div 6. No I propose re-creating a Super Mod type class. Don't do away with anything else yet. Create a class for those who WANT limitations that ease their budget. People who WANT to stop rebuilding another car, seeing HP of new car in their class unrealistic. People who Want an alternative to Mega $ motors and chassis.
Give them an index for points meets. Chose the limitations to make it ALL the same numbers if you want. Let the rest of the people race the wagons, the Blown-injected factory cars but let people have a cheaper entry level of real Heads up class racing instead of Bogus Hp winners or Bogus chassis winners. After all that's the complaint you see from many in this thread, uneven factoring and allowances on Gt chassis.
Then workers will be winners, not only cash to change your combination.
