Do you race your stocker/super stocker at "regular" races?

I bracket race my Class cars. While I have the bracket car my dad built and still race it from time to time, my Super Stocker is faster and more consistent, and the additional seat time is invaluable, particularly since so many Class events are limited runs spread over multiple days. If you were starting out from scratch, I would think it would be cheaper to build and maintain one car than two...

Last time the bracket car was freshened was 2001, and the Class car typically gets something fresh more out of want than need.
