Another low car count?

I know a 10K ST/SG car is not going to be state of the art, but at least you could be competitive if you're smart about your combo. No dice in Stock.

You can have my DF/S '85 Turismo 2.2L for $10K right this instant. Won Saturday, was R/U on Sunday, and won two events last year running a limited schedule. I take PayPal.

I haven't got to that point yet but I think as long as you can use a 13" wheel You can get 20" tall tires.

Michael take a look at these wheels. In the 13" size they aren't that heavy

I'll be getting the 13" V2 Competition wheels to match the pair on the back. They're about 10lbs. Silver ones are currently backordered, but hopefully available in the next couple weeks.

Toby, yes it is very loud

Jim you are right, we started with a super street car and then after Justin turned 16 we bought him a used 4 link dragster and he did quite good in it and started to win a make a little name for himself but if it was not for a chance metting at a rest area on the way from Denver to Seattle with Phil Montith? and the time he took to explain stock and super stock racing to us and him convincing Justin that his talents would fit those classes the best I am sure we would be in Top Dragster/Top Sportman today. That is all I am trying to say and the funny thing is it seem that the more sucessful the stock/super stock racer is the more he is willing to befriend the new comers. Peter and Sal Biondo,Jim and Jimmy Defrank, Kyle Siepel, Jody and Tody Lang and other national event winners and national champs all took time to talk and help Justin when they did not even know him. So imagine if every stock and super stock racer took some time to explain to the other racers how much fun and challenging class racing is. We started in super stock with a $20000 camaro and the 1st used dragster we bought was $20000 so i would think it is comparable in start-up cost, and we held our own with that car.

now let's say you take a super stock car that runs 8.90 with a legal motor,and compare the price of a motor (any size you want) in the same car too make it run 8.90 with no rules,would it be cheaper and easier to make it run 8.90 ? i think it would be.
