A new idea for the Super Stock GT Class

Ok let all address the Pro Stockers ,

let see NHRA can go to Pontiac opps there are no longer around ,

ok they can go to Chrysler opps they are just about done in the performance end maybe,

ok we can go to Chevy opps those cars are well ok but I suspect they will be done also soon ,

ok we can go to Ford for the Pro stockers ,hmm interesting but I suspect their bottom line is not going to be good soon,

ok lets go to Toyota hmm looks ok to me they have the cars and just maybe this would be a good
time to get more involved with advertising their models and use all the coatails of the past advertising in Pro Stock to get their product before the public .

oh where will Pro Stock Go Mustangs ?????

anyone got any new ideas ???

As a former track operator who also races S and SS something needs to be done. I didnt race for 8 years adn when I came back I was still the young guy in the lanes at 36. I was obviously young at 28 as well. The more "we" bitch as races the less NH and IHRA will want us. I have been on both sides of the fence so I know what I'm talking about. My son will be 16 soon and I am fixing him a stocker and a SS car to race. I just hope he can race and see how it was done when his granddaddy was around. Besides I figure a Stocker and SS car is cheaper than rehab somewhere and i know where he is all the time.
