I would like to get into the ranks of Super Stock Racing. I have been reading some of the articles here on class racer and seeing there is either a lack of interest or some changes by NHRA in the class that racers are not happy with. What has happened to the sport? We know the cost has sky rocketed, but how can there be new racers brought to the class? Looking for thoughts.

Hey carguy49, thanks. I didn't put a lot of info on the site initially . I have actually been a bracket racer for 29 years. For the last 7 years I have had an erg to go Super Stock racing, but have had cold feet. Mostly the cost to stay competitive, well lets say 3 or 4 under the index I would like to be to start with. I do have a pretty nice car and could turn it into a Super Stocker very easily, (Chevy of course ) . I am new to class racer though. I am always on this site to see what's going on, but I see a lot of negatives about Stock and Super Stock racing.

Save yourself a ton of money and headache and play golf...lol
I driven in both stock and super stock. My car is currently set up for Super Stock. I'm on a serious budget and my engine last year would go .2 under index. The new engine might run .350 under in ok air. I have to jump from class to class to dodge heads up runs. My word of advice is if you can't go .8 under then you need to find a class that no one runs or dodge them by jumping classes. You have a ton of options as far as what setup to go.
