No Bob we don't, however I've yet to run against a 9sec stocker anyway. Every car I've had to line up next to (so far) has been a 10 sec. or slower roller. Besides, if their cars safety equipment matches their performance (they shouldn't be on the track if it doesn't), then they should stay in their own lane, as I have been in mine...no harm, no foul.

Hmmm,
Slow bracket cars don't even need a helmet, That must cause sleepless nights for you uber safety guys.
I should have had that as a option on the poll. Helmet? I don't need no stinkin helmet.
