Seeing lots for sale

Why are there so many FS cars for sale on Racing Junk?

You know, it's interesting. I just had my Stocker for sale, and I noticed
quite a few COPO'S, Cobra Jets and Drag Packs for sale on a few of
the sites. But, upon closer examination, I could only find one that may
have pursued Factory Stock. There were a couple that ran in S/SS,
and the rest have never been on the track. There were some for sale
by people who always have some for sale, and some for sale by
investors, owners who might want something else etc. There were
certainly none that would qualify in Factory Stock, and didn't appear
to be any that would qualify top 10 in S/SS. I think it is just the normal
turnover of cars like that.

Look again - Seems I've got one for sale in the mix on Racingjunk .com

Jack, I wrote that last year in October, long before your COPO Convertible
was for sale. A very beautiful and fast car. Will sell very quickly at the
low price you have it at!

I browsed RJ the other day and there quite a few COPO, CJ and DP for sale and also Cars On Line as well.

Me thinks some guys who believed they could be successful with these these cars thought better of it. It takes significant funding beyond the purchase price and some serious application of research and development to run with the crowd.

Iike most race cars, not real good investments for return on your money.

A racecar is a good investment just for the enjoyment that we get from them.

I guess none of the FS cars are fast enough to qualify for FSS. as delivered.. But what about regular stock eliminator? Are they 6-7 under as delivered from the factory?
