The second part is the luck of the draw.

I race a 1970 Olds that is rated 10 horsepower less than the factory rated it.

I could have to race a 1970 Chevy LT1 that is rated 35 horsepower less than the factory rated it.

Is this fair? I really don't think so,but if it happens,you take your lumps and go to the next race.Stock will never be "fair"

You could also have to race another 70 Olds, or a 400 Pontiac, or a 340 Chrysler, or a 390 Ford, or a 396 Chevy and you would lose to them also. If you choose not to do the work or spend the money to make your car fast that is your choice. What upsets some of us is that if you have a fast old car that you have worked on and have spent the money on you can still be 4 or 5 tenths or more behind a new car in your same class because they may be 100 hp soft.
