Just find 9 more of your buddies, and youve got your committie! My point is racing changes as the people who participate within it change!

How old is Billy now?

Actually, I think the Cobalt might be the new "killer app". I raced my girlfriend's Cobalt at the first Rockingham bracket points race this year, and I believe that just getting it down to minimum weight, dumping the airbox and exhaust, and throwing some 6x20 M/T's on the front, it'd be well under the index! In IHRA, it fits FF/SA, 2970#, 16.30/9.95 index. Probably would be tougher to hit the 1/8th mile index, but I think Chip Johnson said his kid ran 16.40's with his Cobalt, bone stock. Sweeet.

Hey, Stocker racer.. I'm one of those guys you called OLD...add me to the list.. I don't like being called OLD... I'll line up with anyone at any time. (except nap time) I think you need to show a little respect for your elders. Remember IF you live long enough you too can enjoy life in a way you don't/can't understand, until you reach a certain stage of maturity....

If my memory serves me right, (I'm one of those old guys) a racer was told to tear his rental car down several years ago. I don't remember what happened, but I don't think he raced.

Stockracer---I'm sure I could find many more than nine of my buddies to join my committee if needed--just remember- until most of the "Boomers" retire you're the minority...................
