Well, it's 2014, and this is what Stock is NOW!

And whether we like it or not, this is the arena we play in. If the OEM can submit and the sanctioning body can approve, after the fact, an engine combination that was never installed in a particular vehicle from the factory, then it's obvious that this is how things are NOW! My only hope is that one result of this "liberalizing" of the rules will be to allow some smart racers to take advantage of other interesting combinations that could be made available, all with just the stroke of a pen!

Walking thru the pits Friday..@ RP I was ..shocked, shocked I tell you.. about the state of $tock eliminator..Going By the 8 sec NJ Mustang(s) and PC Richards' stunning Stocker and SS presentation, ATI's Camaro.. I would have to say that the TC and Blower rebuilders have a bright future.

I love modern technology and (most of all) The Innovative brains that challenge the Status Quo. and the Companies that participate and support the Skill and drive of modern drag racing.

(BTW..I think "Big" might fall in that category 55 years ago, and in a "electrifiable " world..Today. )
