I was at the first Top Stock race contested @ IHRA Norwalk Raceway. Very entertaining to watch. A, B and C cars all raced at B weight. IMO, later on the Manufactures got involved and soon they wrecked the class.

Smile Re: Top Stock is back

I loved Top Stock when it was run at the Dutch several years ago. However, the Dutch always has a very aggressive schedule that will now include an additional category with Top Stock. For me, class eliminations in Stock and/or Super Stock are the highlight of any event that I attend. At this year's Dutch, class was cancelled due to the likelihood of rain on Sunday morning. With Top Stock now added to the schedule; a similar situation becomes even more likely. I know that the Index classes are part of Maple Grove's program; but to make the schedule more manageable, I feel that they should be dropped from the Dutch.

The IHRA Top Stock program was an incredibly entertaining endeavor.

While the technical structure of the competition was less formal and rigid, the performance, competition and the drama were highlighted.

It was an outstanding show.
