Super Stock "GT" and SRA

Jim D'Amore · 12-23-2015, 04:44 PM

NHRA has made it easy for us to contact them as their phone numbers and email addresses are listed everywhere. They are very accessible and approachable at race events as well. One of the first people I approached at a national event was Mark Lyle NHRA starter, extremely friendly and truly cares about the sportsman racers. Bruce Batchelder, Danny Gracia, Pat Cvengros, and Dave Ley have all been tremendously friendly and helpful since I've joined the NHRA in 2009.

I would have sent out more emails to the SRAC and the stock/super stock committee but after searching online I found limited access to email or phone contacts. One of the emails got bounced back to me and the other has not sent a reply yet. They were the only two I found.

Jeff Teuton,
Thank you it's always nice speaking with you.

I talked to Mony Jones and he is all for this. Let's get this done so gt can start using the new factory stock engines. You would think the big 3 automakers need this.

I can assure you Mopar is in favor of this. I am not sure about Ford or Chev, but maybe someone can email them if you have the address. Jesse K. with ford posts here sometime, maybe a PM.

Ford Motor Company's Jesse Kershaw is on board and wants this to happen as well. We just exchanged a couple emails with Jesse and he told us he has asked about getting this done for the past 3 years. I also spoke to Jamie Meyers and Robin Wright of the Copo program and they're on board.

The only people who have not replied here yet are the SRAC. NHRA says they will do it, the manufacturers are on board, the racers want it...I will try to contact the SRAC members again myself.
