Thanks for being so complimentary Phil.....

Ed and Phil, you guys need to learn how to use the QUOTE function.

It looked like there were going to be more G and H cars, so I can F. I'm so far down the latter it's not like it makes a difference whether I run .1 under or .30 under. So mathematical odds of getting a heads up would be less.

It turned out not to really matter, there were 2 cars faster than me in all three classes. But none the less, basic math Phil. The less cars in your class the less chance of a heads up.

The 'good' heads were not legal. As in blatantly not legal. The person who Steve Kelly had rebuild the motor did some grinding in the ports..... So they are junk for stock eliminator. The car ran good with them, we went .6 under with that setup, so believe me I'd love to use them.

If NHRA would allow all the classes at all the national events there would be no need for stockers to run ss.

Mark,

You are living the dream. Even if it isn't the smartest decision financially, I'd be willing to bet you wouldn't trade it for ANYTHING.

Mark-

You have done almost everything, within your means. You're just a junky. Just when you think you're going to go back home, you win one, then two.

I, for one, am envious. You do an outstanding job for doing it on your own.

Why should a Stocker be able to qualify for Superstock?

Maybe, just reduce the Superstock indexes .50?

I've been saying that for a long time. If a stocker can run that far under the SS index, the SS index is way too soft. I have caught a lot of flack for it, but I never said lower the stock indexes. I don't have a Stocker, don't have a dog in that fight, so don't care what they do "over there". I also don't spend a lot of money on mine, I just work on it.
