Default Re: PSMCDR...new "tech"

It's hard for people to understand what this race is like until you have actually been there. Believe me...I didn't until I went! It is a TOTALLY different experience than what I expected.

The "certified stock" is to give credibility to the event, by showing what truly stock cars run, and that they DO attend the event. The first year we went, we ran a '69 L34(?) Chevelle (the low hp 396), and it was running 13.50s. Let me say that again...13.50s. We ran him in our shootout, and luckily we ran 13.20s and beat him. It's not just the ultra-quick cars that are cheating...it's also the slower cars that have MORE to gain. This isn't meant to sound like sour grapes, that's just the way it is. It's hard to explain.

In my opinion, this will help the event by allowing the owners of original cars to "save face" by proving there combo is legit.
