If you are looking to a current sanctioning body to "save" Stock and Super Stock, it ain't happening.
Claimer rules won't work. The low buck guy gets his one good engine "claimed" for less than it cost him in parts. He can't come back. The high buck guy has his own good engine, and one or two more, in case one gets claimed, and the low buck guy's only good engine, and the high buck guy can outrun the rest, who can't afford to get into a "claiming war" with him. And you can't really write a set of rules that you can truly enforce well to keep the "claiming war" from happening. Even if you could, it only takes a few times of being "claimed" to put the low buck guys out. Way too much room to game the system in claimer rules. If you're looking to "legislate" money out of racing, it ain't happening. Every where it has been tried, it fails. People with money usually win there, because they can pay more to have cheated up stuff well hidden. "Turning back the clock", to the days when we had valve spring rules, duration rules, lifter rules, and all of that sounds nice, but it would be nearly impossible. Going pure bracket with Stock and Super Stock will kill the classes dead.
