Hi Norm

I am afraid that racers like you and I are mere pawns in a game that we cannot control. We can bitch and moan or take our toys home or just try and enjoy ourselves while we still can. I honestly don't know what the sport will look like when my young kids are old enough to jump behind the wheel.

Not to be totally negative--it seems that Stock has always been a dynamic, quickly evolving class and it has been around longer than us. Also, "self policing" does exist believe me! Most of the racers that I see in Stock take the class rules seriously. I'm not going to waste my time bitching about it but I think it's the NHRA's responsibility to meet us halfway.

Congratulations on your great season. Between you and Jody there were two wagons in the top ten!
