I could take a moment to easily explain it, but if someone doesn't "get it" by now--they never will.

Exactly what I was thinking....and last year it was obvious everybody brought their "A" game.

At issue is the limited number of newer cars a person can build. The new factory cars are nice but expensive for the average racer. However, there aren't many alternatives. Older' cars ( 60's,70's, even some 80's) cars are just as expensive because they are rare, as are the parts.

Lots of the 80's and 90's cars got caught up in the cash for clunkers are gone. What is left is front wheel drive cars, poor man's alternative.

What we really need is some decent affordable 'rear wheel drive' alternatives from Detroit. Until that happens, we are at least getting something to help promote growth and renew some interest in stock class. Three or four years from now we may get some new blood who can afford the current cars that will have been cast off by then.

There has always been some 'killer' cars popping up in stock over the years, be they older or newer combos (1986 chev pickup?). So let's just race and have some fun. Like it or not I think those new cars are needed for the sport.

Just MHO.
