End of Stock and SuperStock Racing??

Instead of an earth-shaking announcement that puts us all out of business at once like a medical pandemic, it will more likely take on the form of three thousand separate, widely spread obituaries popping one-at-a-time as each of us is overtaken either by the grim reaper or the realization that individual ingenuity and personal commitment are no longer adequate tools to offset the effects of the almighty checkbook in a pay-to-play environment.

Drag racing drew most of us in with the offering of "doing" not "watching" car racing. When we can no longer "do" most of us simply decline to "watch."

Ah yes........They don't come any better than Chuck Norton when he post's on a thread. Listen to him well those who are younger than 30 years of age. He has his mind and head on the pulse of NHRA stock and S/S drag racing and says it better than anyone. He has been there and done that. It will take time but the state of class racing is on borrowed time.
