Florida, West Palm Beach area. I am praying the rumors are true reguarding us and IHRA. We just got one more new track and one that might switch over. If that happens we spose to become our own division with 4 doubles. THAT would be awesome!

Plan on building another PS when my younger son gets done with JR's and gradually make em both either into crate motor or legal stockers. Honestly I am very excited about this project. I always wanted a class car just couldn't bring myself to pull the trigger. I have raced S/G, Top Sportsman, and fast doorcar stuff for years. Even ran outlaw 10.5 and Heavy Street some. LOVE the heads up stuff, just couldn't bring myself to do it when it started getting really outta hand.

Have you purchased your car yet? Corbitt is selling his on racing junk and the price is right. You couldn't build it for what he is asking and it already has a 12-bolt and some nice pieces. If I'm not mistaken too it runs under the index so it's turn key. Those are great cars as you can easily stay in Pure Stock while you learn and then "step-up" (not my idea Dan) to crate motor or FIA. Corbitt is in Eastern NC so it wouldn't be a horrible tow plus you could stop at Sonny's BBQ on the way. Boy, I miss those!!!

Thanks Scott, Already have a deal, just waiting to take delivery. I looked at that car, nice piece. I'm hoping to be under the index for 4-5k total investment tho. Looks like it shouldn't be a problem.

That's the one I was talking about. If it wasn't half way across the country I'd buy that one for me let my wife drive the Corvette. Those cars are great platforms Kenny and yes the IHRA Pure Stock indexes can be achieved without breaking the bank. F-body parts are much less expensive than some. A good set of headers, converter, gear and lightweight wheels with sticky tires will get you there ... Also get a nice tune and lose some weight by ditching the AC, smog equipment, etc. Those have always been one of my favorite body styles for Stockers.
