No joke!! I can only hope Lloyd runs it as hard as he did the old car, takes his hits and gets his tail out of SS/JA soon. LOL

Mr Jeff,
Good to see you here on Class Racer. How's your physical therapy going? When are you going to let the cat out of the bag? You know the 50 "Southland Dodge" Stock Eliminator Specials. The Roush guys got it done in 18 months, you should be ready in 2012. See you soon, Wayne Kerr |

Mr Jeff, I know I am a "newbie" to this stock class racer stuff, so please don't spank me to hard or yell at me: But, in all honesty, knowing you and your families racing heritage: Would you drive a chevy or ford? I mean what would racing be without the long history of brand loyalty. Glad to see that ya'll are still going strong with the Mopar colors. That's a damn pretty hauler ya'll have too.

By "brand loyalty", are you refering to the German Damlier/Chrysler, or the Italian Fiat/Chrysler? Are you towing with a Mexican built Dodge Ram truck? Just curious.

Shhhh.... Ha-ha. We took those out of it after I scattered it during our first year out with it. It doesn't really have any corporate parts in it. You should know that. I think it got toasted because of the couple of chevy parts it did have. Now that they are gone it's held up fine. Being sarcastic here, don't get your bow-tie in a wad.

I know about all that but what can you do when the new stuff gets farmed out. Grandma Mopar still gets my money, not GM or Ford. My dually was assembled in Mexico. My wifes hemified Durango is basically a Damlier/Benz/Dodge. All my older Dodge trucks were assembled in the USA, no , I do have an older 89 Ramcharger that was assembled in Mexico. My daily driver 98 CC dakota R/T one of the first 300 made was assembled in Michigan, but it was one of the trucks where the engine was assembled by one person. Still all stock, still running solid. I don't care where they assembled my R/T Challenger, it is just to damn pretty to worry about it. But, it's still all about the brand and the car. Most mopar guys just love the crap out of puttin' a ford or chevy back in the dog house. Doesn't mean we don't like you: We just don't like your cars.All my older cars are all Mopar, except for some of the reproduction parts I used to rebuild some of them, cause NOS was to hard to locate. Tell me you are running Chevy lifters, springs valves etc in your stocker. I don't think many stockers are running many stock parts in the engine.

The only car I have that isn't almost all Mopar is the Outlaw Dart. But how many 10.5 cars do you see out there running stock anything. About the only stock part is the body. It's just a car to go out and have fun with and hopefully put some fords and chevies back in the trailer and maybe take a little cash home for my effort.
