The cars in STK and SS are great to watch. If anyone knows a person to meet with close that would be great. I have a photo graphic memory, just lose the film sometimes. I've learned a ton by just asking the question. Send more knowledge.
Check out the Buckeye Stock / Super Stock group on this site. Bunch of good guys to talk to and I believe they have a race next weekend at National Trail.

I'm the exception here. I built my car and would do it again. Certainly wasn't the cheapest way and I couldn't run the index when I started but I learned a lot doing it that way. If your going to build your own, I highly advise you to look through the Dime Rocket thread for something that might interest you.

Most Stock and Super Stock racer's are the nicest people you'll ever meet and the fast guys will talk to you. Seek them out and it will shorten the learning curve. They will not give you all the black magic but if you seem willing to learn (work) they will help you.

Good luck and welcome!
