Would love to hear a different side of the same story, please make a thread of how you went about entering stock including your build and who helped you to get into it.
Maybe hear from someone Billy Nees helped? I would love to hear that story

Now to me this story is an eye opening truth to those wannabes that look at stock blindly and think they can build a car like any other bracket car. It’s not saying it can’t be done, just what to expect.
Thanks Mark for posting
