Newbie with newbie question

[FireSale]

Stock and SuperStock cars are getting thin and scattered around the country especially with the high number of classes, so I wouldn't worry about building to avoid heads up class runs against hot cars/drivers. Learn to read the Stock Car Guide at the NHRA Competition link at this site. Find a car that has a competitive fit and appeals to you and start with Stock. Read the rule book carefully and ask question after question here. I tried to build right into SS with my first race car and stumbled over rule interpretations. I love my bracket car but it will never carry the SS flag.
