It used to be that stock eliminator was a place someone with talent and a small budget could race National events, and run for a championship, and have a chance at being a champion. Now you need $100,000 plus new under rated cars cars, stacker trailers, and the ever larger motor homes plus a business that runs itself while your away for a week just to run a points race. Where is the line drawn for the little guy. Staying home and bracket racing just dosent cut it for most on this board. This is not to cut down those who have the money to do this crazy sport in a down turned economy. But where does it leave the loyal dedicated racers who are not well funded and just get by ? Some say $95 more is no big deal for a fun weekend with their buddies but is it really FUN to give your money away to an association that dosent give a rats azz about the lowly sportsman racer?

It's still the best place to race imho. I only have one low dollar car with a home-built engine, but if I can't afford the entry fee I don't need to be racing.
