Lack of contingency decals on cars????
 

Is it me or has anyone else noticed that alot of cars,especially new ones are runnin naked with no decals.Is it because of lack of contingency applications,or too nice of paint, or some kind of silent protest I was not aware of? I think its cool seeing these almost right off the street or straight out of the car show cars running down the track. Whadda you guys think???

I think it's probably a combination of lack of contingency posting and a protest against manufacturer's that do not pay.

It's all about personal preference IMO. I would be very happy to cash-in on a win or r/u, even though the offering is lean - especially with my combination. I wish to support the manufacturers by displaying their logos, simple as that. Being a relative new comer to Stock, I have very few disappointments behind me to affect my decision.

Either way, I love the landscape.

i run my car 'naked' because it looks better that way,and helps maintain an 'in cognito' image lol (ive been told my car looks just like a grandma's car)

i have been racing for 20 years,,,just as a hobbie,,this is my first year in stock eliminator,,i choose not to run any decals for a few reasons ,1 if i have to chase winnings down from manufactures that i spend money with its not worth it to me showing there decal on my car and besides some of the products on my car are used and dont have proof of purchase ,,,all though the product is clearly being used on the car,,2 i do not do this for a living and in the event i end up going to the finals or close in a divisional and get some exposure i would like the public to see that the guy that does this for a hobbie can go rounds with out looking like a sponserd backed racer,,if this was my way of making a living yes i would have as much as i could on the car and mite even run a different combo to better my odds of winning,,,
what i would consider is in the event of landing a sponser that would partner with my operation,i would certainly run a decal or logo from that company,,for now big bad blue is bare

Hi folks! New member from Sweden here. I'm not a racer but I wish to be in the future, lol.

Anyway, about these decals. I thought pretty much everything was "stock" in Stock Eliminator, then how come so many after market decals are put on the cars in the first place? Have I got things completely wrong about the class? :confused:

Simply put. More stickers = MORE PAY!

Stocker by name only, far from being stock, like stock from a car lot.Highly refined and finessed machines.
