Interesting tidbit Adam. I did not know that! Personally, I don't care if someone clutches or not, I was just pointing out that a clutch is supposed to be used to comply with the rules. I love Stock and S/S cars but am also one of the old guys who think things have gone too far. Something wrong with a system when a "Stocker" can run 9's or can also qualify for S/S.

As I look at the records in National Dragster it looks like the automatic cars are faster in MOST cases of Stock and Super Stock. In Super Stock/ Modified Stock and Modified automatic cars get a 250 lbs weight break. I do not believe the stick cars are running away with anything.
