Thanks for the comment, Jack-o, and welcome back here. :-)

Not sure if the new tires would help, but many already in the class could darn sure do it if they wanted to. Actually, I meant it as an example of how this is quickly becoming a millionaire's class. In other words, another Pro class. Do you guys need more of those?
I don't.

I know a guy who ran IHRA Top Stock back in 2001 or 2002, and he told me at that time that he was the only guy running the class who was not a millionaire.

Factory Stock Showdown is a long way from what those cars were.
