Looking into F/SA, why spend $50k?

You could build a legal stock Eliminator car for less than $10,000 and race for the same purse and trophy as the guy who has 50, 60 or $70,000 in his. I know, been there done that. Do the math and study the guide. Pick a combo that makes sense for your budget. There's lots to choose from. Ask Billy Nees or Paul Wong.

It certainly does not happen real often.
That being said......The first two national races
this year both my boy and I each had one (N/SA and D/SA)very
early in Eliminations.
At Autolite Natls some years ago....I had three in a
row (E/SA) first three rounds.
If you are on a budget = BUY a CAR!
You can sometimes buy them a Quarter on the Dollar or
less if they have a few problems.
I paid $5,500. for my Demon E/SA and $7,500 for Aspen Wagon I/SA
and both were Nice cars and under the index (Wagon ran 9 Under with
a little tuning and NO more money).
Spend a lot of time and a little more money as you can and HAVE FUN!

That'd be great too. I've been checking the stock section of racing junk but no small block Mopars I like yet. Anyone know of any not listed in the $15k range pm me, that's the cash I'm working with.
