I know a guy that only ran his first and last event last year and was unlucky enough to draw a fast heads up first round. I felt really bad for him. He worked his tail off to run stock and then that happened. I'd be surprised if he tries stock again.

I'd be curious to know if the quicker cars in class if the engines were built by the car owners/drivers vs. buying them from a builder. If the latter is true it's just a money class (more money=more performance).

I'd also be curious as to whether stock racers would rather see more stock cars or less at a race. If the latter is true why not change it to run eliminations like they do in the class combo.... Dial everyone at index and whoever gets there first wins. That would make it a true performance class.

You remind me of folks that buy a house next to a racetrack, knowing very well what to expect.... and then want something done about all that damn noise ...

Like it. I am now officially training my 18.4 lb monkey to get to minmum in B/SA, or maybe just let a really fat guy drive and stay in C. Here is the solution. My trained monkey will run B and I will run E in another car. Problem solved. Everyone will like my trained monkey.
