Why is there no interest in all new combos

[GUMP]

In a lot of cases, it's the same guys that were racing (or wanted to race) a new car back in the "good old days" that are now buying the FS cars. Since the rules have changed so much over the years, the FS cars are now the equivalent of taking a 1973 Duster from the dealer to the track. If not easier.

There was a time when many local tracks were running Stock Eliminator on a weekly basis. A lot more people were involved back then. Cars were marketed to customers based on there ability to run Stock. The market just isn't there anymore. The OEMs don't have designated people to populate the guides like they used to.

Every once in a while, you run into someone that is willing to put in the time to help you. But, that is a kind act on their part to take on the added work load.
