Re: stock and super stock racing
That is how races were run in the 60's early 70". I you were racing H/S, H/Stock, you had a national record to run off of, probably set by Bobby Warren. All cars in H/S run against each other for the class win. After all classes were run then Stock Eliminator is called and the winner of each class runs. The cars were run as they pulled into the staging lane. If you were running against a D/S your national record was probably lower than his therefore, you got a head start.
We did not run off a number selected by any means other that how fast the fast car in the class would run at an event. You went faster than the national record, published in the National Dragster Magazine, he could, on your next run match that et or speed and you were the new national record holder an next race all H/S, in eliminator were put in the system with that et.
