Don,
I wish you well on your thoughts, but I'm still waiting for the import lovers to prove in stock eliminator that they're as good as "Car and Dipstick", plus "Consumer Retards" thinks they are. There's only one import that has chosen to run with either of our categories, and I applaud Scott for bringing his 9sec Toyota out to play with us Detroiter's...I actually found out who he is although he appeared wanting only to see who I was, and talk to the fellow racer that was hanging out with me in staging prior to a Fri. aft run at the Jegs Pacific Sportsnationals...I wanted to make his acquaintance, but did he mine??? Oh, and btw, just in case anyone may have taken humor by my cars failure to start a second time after another car caused me to have to shut mine down in the burnout box, the problem child (my starter) was the original one placed in the car when built back in '85-'86, so it was about time...I just wish it didn't have to be at that time!
I take back nothing I've said in any previous posts I made about foreign products, because I'm still waiting to see Toyota Tundras hauling inclosed trailers with race cars, etc. in them...or Toyota Tacoma's towing 2600lb race cars on a 1600lb flat-bed car hauler, like my Chevy Colorado (with an inline 5cyl engine), has done since 2005, and they have a supposedly more powerful V6 engine than my 220hp 5cyl, or the newer (2007 and up) models 242hp version!!!
I've looked in the stock car class guide to see what import makers have cars that could run in stock, and they're the '06-'07 Honda Civic's (with manual trannies), and the '91 Mitsubishi Mighty Max truck (either manual or auto). So how about it you import lovers who own those types of vehicles...where are they??? I'm calling you out...as the movie "The Warriors" said, "come out and plaaeeaaay"!!!!
Bottom line Don, I think you're dreaming...but what good is living if you don't have dreams, right???
