I have a few more for this thread:
1. Larry Dowty raced a Pontiac Grand Am in Super Stock, but I think it's either sold, or for sale.
2. Randy Hyman raced a Citation Stocker, but sold it and has been racing a Chevy Truck for about 2yrs.
3. Stan Kopejtka, also has/had an Aries Stocker.
4. I don't remember the guys name, but I faced (and got dusted by) a Dodge Daytona Turbo, back in the early 2000's when my combo was factored too hard (B&CF/SA). That car was street legal, and had Colorado plates on it to prove it.
5. Gary Gokey has his turbo Dodge Omni still, and he might bring it back out of storage, but I am not sure?
6. Lisa Stephenson has her Olds Delta 88 Stocker, but I think it's for sale too....
Number 4 Was. Eric Georges from highlands ranch Colorado .

Talking Re: Where did the FWD stockers go?

Don't forget the Cadillac I ran for 18 years and held The AF/SA ,BF/SA, CF/SA, and DF/SA records for years! Qualified #1 at Indy until the last Q session in 1989 I believe and won class at Indy in '89 and '90 against those tough under factored Oldsmobiles! The Caddy is parked in TN. and the Spirit that I got from Artie was sold right after I bought the Volare' from George Wieduch and was completely redone but has been parked for several years. That car is still deadly. Both the Caddy and the Spirit were Giant Killers, just ask Bob Reed. I still have my SRT4 Neon and could be raced tomorrow if I wanted to. Had lots of fun times with those "little boy cars"! And that's what its about, right? Jim

Larry Dowty either sold or scrapped his S/S FWD Quad 4 Pontiac Grand Am several years ago. Larry then built a 94 or 95 302 Mustang for, I believe, O/SA. He ran that for a while, sold it, and I havent seen him for a few years now.

My Escort is sitting in my garage for the winter. I race it a little at the Can Am Series and bring it to Indy When the Comp car is broke. Still runs 95 under. It was my first car so I doubt I will ever sell it.

Love the video. Question if you don't mind. Steve, do you run a stick? It looks like you've been racing your Escort for a while. How well do the transaxles hold up for you?
