Junior Stock vs IHRA Pure Stock
Been trying to get an answer.
What is the difference between these classes? Dan |
Re: Junior Stock vs IHRA Pure Stock
Good question.
Since Jr. Stock was before my time, I would be interested to hear the similarities (or differences) as well. Just saw this thread: http://classracer.com/classforum/showthread.php?t=44410 |

I think IHRA has a marketing opportunity here. With Stock being a Camshaft/Valve Trane away from being Super Stock. The complaints have been rampant regarding the expense for gasoline, seats, roll bars, seat belts and even the helment requirements. I remember post Junior Stock all the tracks had weekly Stock and Super Stock racing before Bracket Racing became the rage. Think this is an opportunity to recruit the new bread of cars with Junior Stock of old. I know many of the cars are out there and serviceable enough to bring back to life. Considering all the new aftermarket body parts available and the rise of restoration shops all over the nation. Pure Stock a good class and renaming Junior Stock should bring benefits. Yet still using the existing Pure Stocker rules. Renaming it Junior Stock would revive the nostalgia for the class and bring the past and future together. FWIW PS is a more fun class than Stock as your anore stressing the platforms as much. How many Stockers today can you put back into Street Condition without a major overhaul? But another advantage you can move a Stocker into Junior Stock using the less expensive Pure Stocker Valve Trane. Tech Inspection would be less time consuming. Except maybe the Camshaft requirement. This could be solved by having the Cam Builders Certify their cams are Junior Stock Legal. IHRA ..think about reviving Junior Stock !! Think you will get a lot of converts.. Dan Fahey |

Re: Junior Stock vs IHRA Pure Stock
I would be surprised if IHRA doesn't combine Stock and Super Stock together pretty soon.
Adding another class seems unlikely.The car counts are just not there. |

Here's a pic of an old Supercharged Ford from the early 70's...seems like it's deja vu doesn't it.
