Default Re: What is the correct description of a 60's Jr. stocker.

Around here Stock Elininator was A/S down. Weren't broken down. Here at Tulsa we ran 1st & 3rd Sundays, qualified, and ran off a ladder. Paid about the same as a WCS, less the contingencies. Ran off of national records. You had to be pretty fast to win anything. Pretty good time to be racing. Still had plenty of cars working to get faster, instead of crawling off to someplace easier. Different world then. Now it's et brackets where any clown with any junk is as fast as a sharp guy with a fast car. It's racing dumbed way down. Like Pete Peery said about running off of indexes: "On Sunday, everybody is a record holder". About right.
