Stocker running in SuperStock.....?

[GTX JOHN]

Unless the rules have changed in 2010 (haven,'t download Rulebook), you have always been required to possess a Competition License to run SS/IA. This requires a medical exam then followed by testing in car. I did not notice in your posting that you had obtained the above license......you might want to check into that. I believe that the transmission blanket is only required when you are running 10.99 or faster no matter what record is as long as index is 11.00 or slower. Those are the reasons I always add the required weight to run SS/JA (can't fog mirror hardly --Let alone pass Med. Exam). Real Super Stock guys could probably elaborate on this further

For what its worth... a few years back I saw Dan Fletcher race his Checkmate Super Stocker in S/G at E-Town national event. If the shoe fits... go for it.

you may want to hook up the transbrake and go off the bottom bulb..may be better for your reaction times..unless you can footbrake pretty good...
not sure if you are familiar with the buttons they use so here is one example(if your even interested)

I passed, and have a licence, added the $20 "Stock" to it at Atlanta, so did the Old Man. (Us holding our Blue Stock Temporary thingy's) We were liscenced for SuperGas last year or so.

The Challenger was set up to be legal for being FAST (like 9.50's) so all is good, the Trans and Flex shield was my call, it wasnt required, and a 904 isnt as likley as 727 to excape the case but.....well I shield all trannys.

I gotta Say John, my father has Cancer in his lung, bad, he has low iron from Chemo, he....well on and on.

BUT the medications hes on checked OK (no blood thinners) A Urinalysis and an EKG and He PASSED ! There is no reason for him not to except diminished lung capacity, hes not prone to blackouts etc. Divisional and National went over the stuff with a fine toothed comb and even called and faxed and refaxed stuff between the docs, in the end AOK For liscence. He was worried he wouldnt be able to so instead of making the runs in a friends Dragster he asked that I do "short car"

Try for it, my next is to crossover for long cars. my FED Project...

Thanks

Shhhhhh.....the fact our Challenger DP has a hidden Transbrake hooked up the the Rev limiter to make it sound like a 2 step was supposed to be Seeeeeeccccccrrretttt..lol.

No but seriously the car dosent have one, its got an EShift Valve body. But no TB.....(I wish it did after you see my launch in person and 60ft times 1.45 ugh mind you I was hoping for 1.30 then later 1.2x) But well that was MY launch not the car.

No Transbrakes.......
