You are a true stocker hero, Jim. All the people lamenting over the high-dollar cost of competing are creating their own misery.

The lower classes and the racers in them are my inspiration. We all would love to go fast, but why not get involved, at any level, in the meantime. Granted I have a ways to go, but my current build is at roughly 1500 for everything, using alot of used and ebay parts along the way. It will make passes this spring, maybe even under the index. I probably am toast heads up, but until then, I get to race while working towards a better car, which isnt getting out there the whole point anyway?
