How are the new cars remaining in Stock classes going to affect your racing this year

While I couldn't possibly race more than I do now, the new cars have directly affected the decisions I've made. I sat back and watched. It became painfully obvious that NHRA wasn't going to do anything about the new cars. That, combined with how all of the schedules have been changing over the years, I have elected to sell my crate motor, and build a new engine to go Super Stock racing. A wise man with a funny accent and a beer cooler once told me something along the lines of 'If you can't beat 'em, join 'em.' If nothing else, it gave me a good excuse to call and talk to Scott Helms at Southland Speed. He makes me laugh.

Well, congratulations. Make sure you send NHRA a Christmas Card.
