With a "built" vehicle, you can get right into testing, tuning, experimenting. That's what Stock is all about.
Used to be, you bought a used street vehicle and made it a race car. Now, it's classic car stock racing. To build from scratch, you'll either have to spend considerable bucs just to get a nice original vehicle, or spend considerable bucs to make a dog nice enough to THEN spend modifying it. Heck, now days, just a paint job can cost more than what it used to cost to buy and build a competitive car. (depending on class, a bit) Geez, I'm talking myself into an already done car! But I'm a recovering addict and wwwwwwill not ggggget into it aaaaaaagain.... |

Well I guess I will go against the grain. I have 2 LOWER class cars that I've assembled myself. My "N" car has only run .45 Over. My "EF" car has already run .51 under. Part of this Stock deal is picking a good combo. I like the technical part of this and seeing what works and what doesn't. Which probably goes against what my wallet can afford.? But to me , this way is more gratifying.
