I can believe that, given the state of mechanical excellence that exists in Stock and Super Stock "mechanics."

I never saw a mention as to whether Garlits' new Dodge will run in Stock or Super Stock.

Anybody have any info about that?

I can't see him cutting up car #001. If it's got the 6.1L it will likely be an SS/FA (or somewhere around that area) and that's a little too fast for a 9" tire IMHO.

I guess what I'm saying is that it'll be a stocker.
