A true Super Stock car has a advantage on a marginal track... Reasons are much large tires and more sophisticated and tunable suspension. A transbrake add consistency to driving and seem to make reaction times closer together and more repeatable for many drivers. SS/JA does not require a license/Cert. Cage/Multlayer suit. SS/IA requires all those to be added. I f car runs 10.99 or faster must have transhield or blanket.
Other than Indy or some over 128 card divisionals all cars run .... as long as you can run index you can compete successfully and will be OK if you do not catch a heads up race. We regularly run Super Stock at races where Stock is not run or it fills up early. Stockers have more than a few times won a National Race in Super Stock. Do people like it.......many do not appreciate it since they can not run in Stock and the feel it keeps more legitimate Super Stocks from racing their eliminator.

Just my .02 worth. John Irving
