Re: Stocker in Super Stock
Just a reminder...
Some Stockers that would pass a visit to the "NHRA Stocker Barn", will not pass a visit to the "NHRA Super Stock Barn." Just sayin... |

Re: Stocker in Super Stock
So if you had a legal stocker that lets say is a natural C/SA but...your combo has been so over factored, it wont outrun any other combo in C/SA. ( just like our natl champs car our natl champ doesn't even want to take her car to Indy,that's just wrong) ...so anyway there are 4-5 C/SA cars in your division and you cant outrun any of them if you happen to get paired ...but there's only 1 in SS/JA ..

Re: Stocker in Super Stock
"...Don't understand the reason for this post you can run your car in any class or eliminator it legally fits."
Don't have a dog in the hunt. But, I'm enjoying this thread. Until last season, I didn't know a Stocker could switch over & run SS, without changes. Then I noticed that Lindy Lindholm ran his Bird(which was stolen) in SS, & a late model in Stock, at the same race. As long as the safety rules are met, I don't see a problem with it. Due to the bracket-like, dial-your-own nature of non-heads-up races, as long as the Stocker can run the SS index, it has just as good a chance of winning as the quickest SS car has. Maybe THAT'S why some guys who have spent LOTS of money makin their SS car super quick don't want cheaper-to-build Stockers running SS. But, I can't really see any difference in running against a slow, low buck SS car, than running against a Stocker that is quick enuff to run it's SS index. What's the problem with it ? Should NHRA stop it, because some of the quick SS guys don't like it ? Would like to hear more opinions about it. |
