CLASS RACER FORUM - View Single Post - Joe Newbie, 20 Builds a "Stocker"' in 2023

I have been racing my car for almost 46 years. I do everything on it. I don’t have an engine guy or a transmission guy or chassis guy. My stuff is slow but is an awesome race car. I have won on the NHRA division level and IHRA pro am level against some world champion drivers. So it can be done. I have even won class 4 times for a total of 5 Wally’s right now I run .4 too .5 under. My goal when I go to the track is to cut a good light and run the dial. If I get a heads up I just race the same way. I have had a few lately and went home early. That’s just part of the game. I accept it and move on. At the last 2 races I lost by a total margin of .005.
I enjoy the racing win or loose.
