Deconstructing Stock

X2 Mike!! I'd sell my stuff and that would be the end of me at any NHRA events, or being a member. I'm a young guy that had nothing, no budget, no skill. But my dream was to race stock. My first race was the Federal Mogal race at Leabanon in 97. I made it to the semi final and lost. If I made it to the final I would have had Joe Demarzo heads up. I would have lost by 8 tenths. I accepted that, it was the rules. 8 years later after alot of hard work and some careful money spent, I became competitive . It was a great and rewarding ride. That is the game for the entire existance of this class, that's what I fell in love with. Not bitching because the rules didn't suit me, or people had more money than me.

P.S. If heads-up runs become no more then you'll never see me at another race. Then again, at 27 I guess I'm no longer considered a young guy.
