Default Re: Oil Downs (Beat to Death)

Sadly, I share your views,Novassdude,about a segment of spectators. I remember the days when stands could be filled for a Pro Stock show. When Jenkins,Sox and Martin ,etc.pioneered P/S it eclipsed the f/cs in popularity through good promotion of the category. What is lacking today is any real coverage of Pro Stock.

And remember back then the fuel racers were pissed at the pro stock guys stealing their glory ! Pro Stock was far more popular than Too Fool or fuel Ha Ha cars.

YES-X Tech ! After the fuel coupes got away from altered w/base steel bodies(when they were"funny"looking). Seriously can't see why P/S isn't promoted agressively , the original appeal was how public could associate P/S with their car out in parking lot. What I always wondered , if it wasn't because t/f and f/c sponsors have deeper pockets for ad money (TV spots and event sponsorship).
