SS/B is always worth the price of admission. It is my favorite Super Stock class, (just check out my avatar)!

As of a couple of minutes ago Super Stock was at 144; only 16 spots still open. It will probably be filled by Monday, a full 3 weeks before the entry deadline.

Normal operating procedure. Low counts in other classes but cut Super Stock by 20 cars.

It would have been nice if the big three had asked for it to be put back to 180. Maybe Aldo and Kershaw could still try. Win Win. More $$ for NHRA, more exposure for Chev, Ford & Chrysler, more racers, more cars for fans to see. HUMMM As for the pit space argument, there is plenty of room in the North West corner for rigs.

147 now. Did it fill up this fast last year? I don't remember it like this. But, I'm old, so....

There will be more jump in as it drops another grade point. There will be more drop out as they find out that they can't or don't want to attend.

I hope to go back one day. It will not be this year, there is no way to have the engine done in time, then prepare the car, especially not to make Bowling Green, as bad as I'd like to.

The last time, we did not have a solid engine, it did not seal up and run well until the next race, because we rushed it. I left with my tail between my legs and an ugly DNQ. That will not happen again.

3 spots left!

No Ed, it didn't; it's at 158 now. In an earlier post, I predicted that it would be full by Monday; I have to retract that, it may be full before I go to bed tonight!

Ed Wright · 08-02-2014, 09:44 PM

It's full at 160 now!

If I counted correctly there are 5 entries for SS/B (ford, chevy and amc). There is a total of 27 stick shift cars entered in various classes - COOL. A car you guys should take a look at is Troy Olsonawski's 66 Chevelle Wagon. He will be at Indy. The car runs in SS/NA and usually carries the front wheels about 60 feet. He was running in the 11.20's at the Northwest Nationals. The car is a wrap, not paint and looks AWESOME. There are pictures of it in the super stock section under Combo at Pacific Raceways results - check it out
