Re: ClassRacer.com Christmas Giveaway!
I enjoy class racing for a multitude of reasons...seeing the mechanical talents of many, the innovative spirit, the close racing . I think class racing embodies all that is good in the human spirit, we are fierce competitors for 1/4 of a mile, and helping and supportive friends the rest of the time.
The biggest reason I enjoy class racing is being able to be with my friends and family. I'm a 2nd generation drag racer, grew up at race tracks following my Dad. I've been fortunate enough to watch my son grow up to be a racer, too. I have no doubt my family will have a 4th generation drag racer at some point. The times we spent together, at the race track and in the shop, strengthened our family ties. The experiences we have shared are priceless. |

We love class racing because it is the last arena where the true sportsman drag racer can still strut his or her stuff by letting it all hang out young or old new car or traditional older in a heads up or class run and there are still TRUE brand rivalries Ford vs Chebbie, or Mopar, Nash vs Buick Olds or Pontiac etc.and even the occasional Cadillac or Fart can nerd car so as not to leave out Art , Tim or the self proclaimed super Honda or Hyundai or whatever it is and the west coast gerbil hauler:confused: |
Re: ClassRacer.com Christmas Giveaway!
I have always loved the challenge of taking something stock and tweaking the life out of it and trying to be competitive. Cars that you can see driving down the street, something real that isn't purpose built but purpose made. It's nostalgic and makes me remember things from long ago. Lots of thoughts and emotions, certainly one thing sums it up for me, Fun! :)

Re: ClassRacer.com Christmas Giveaway!
Because class racers never stop searching for that little bit extra. A well known Super Stock guy once told me, "If you think you've found every hundreth that's left in your combination and you think there's nothing left in it.........you're in the wrong sport".
Merry Christmas! |
Re: ClassRacer.com Christmas Giveaway!
Stock/super stock cars are the coolest race cars. Class racers are the friendliest and most eager to lend a hand. Racing a car under a given set of rules and finding what works and what doesn't is a fun challenge.

Re: ClassRacer.com Christmas Giveaway!
I think more than anything it's the sound of a stocker or super stocker firing up, idling, and running down the track. Also, it's the best car show there is (kinda partial to the older vehicles myself). Of course, picking up a tenth or two here and there and doing the work yourself is extremely rewarding. Ron.

I just think I can learn so much about the sport I have loved for 50 of my 64 years, by listening to, and asking advice from.............. Class Racers..

Re: ClassRacer.com Christmas Giveaway!
I'm new to racing class after a couple years of brackets. As a kid I loved growing up at the track and watching these cars that looked like they were right off the streets stand on the bumper, and listening to the high winding stick shift cars row through the gears. Watching 15 second stockers get chased down by 9 or 10 second stockers and all of it made me hooked. I was lucky enough to be able to accomplish a goal from when I started racing in 2007 still in high school and that was make my S10 a stocker. I got the chance to run a couple combo races this year and pulling into the lanes with this elite group that I watched as a kid growing up and dreamed being a part of, I finally was able to be part of the show
