Stock eliminator today is like the original Pro Stock. 4 speeds and slapper bars. I realize we have to progress but come on now the Pro Stock cars are carbon fiber. In the old days Jenkins and the Vega guys had to retain the original uni-body and build around it. Then you could use fiberglass components, but maintain an original steel hood windshield posts and modify the back the quarter panels and rear hatch area. Today, come on all carbon fiber
Just ain't the same. I remember when jenkins and Sox were going 9.80's almost like the A/stick cars are doing today. Like The Couger says: Thats when sport was sport and groovin was groovin! Thank God for progress though, because my one son had a heart transplant 6 years ago and is doing great. So I guess progress in some things is not all bad.
