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).
