New Factory Appearing Race Class

[Chevy454]

Hey Joe...if you're factory stock, you're best bet would be the Pure Stock Drags in Stanton...

The Milan race is in June, it is on the NSCA site.

Hey 454, "factory Stock" isn't the name of the class, it is actually "factory appearing". None of our cars in FA would make the tech in pure stock.

[Chevy454]

Yeah, I know what "Factory Appearing" is, as I've ran our Pure Stock Camaro at every Stock Appearing (read: F.A.S.T. or F.A.D.) event but a couple since the class' inception a few years back...but he mentions "Factory Stock" which is a Pure Stock class, so I *assumed* he'd be legal for the Stanton Pure Stock event...

[RoadRnnr69]

Oh yeah Rob, you are definately a veteren!!
You were running a 70 Chevelle back in 2000 when the FAST boys were still trying to be pure stock legal, didn't a current FAST car win that event, 72 Buick?

[Chevy454]

Oh geez, the Chevelle...seems like ages ago! I had some major electrical fits that weekend...I think we worked the entire weekend on that thing. There was a whole wad of the current F.A.S.T. guys there that year doing what they do best...I guess I can say I was a part of history! LOL!! And that Buick...was it the Chamberlands? They used to have 2 cars there every year, but I haven't heard from them in a while...

[RoadRnnr69]

It was Greg Gessler, he won with like a 12.4+ something.

That was right around the time that FAST started and a few guys never came back.

[Chevy454]

Ahh, Greg...couldn't remember if he was there that year or not. I can't remember how many of the guys got bounced that year because of refusing to P&G and that type of stuff...but boy were they puttin' down some times! But then those same guys got together and started FAD (which morphed into FAST) and had their first event at Norwalk...at which, of course, I munched my trans first pass out! 18 hour drive down the drain...

Can i just come out and race with you guys? I'm going to put a set of 9.0 slicks on the car and give it a shot! I ran it last september at Milan for the muscle car day deal. I had the BF goodrichs on and NO traction. I just left it in drive and rolled it out until it hit drive and mashed the pedal. It turned 13.2 112. I'm just out to have some fun!

Here's the rules for Stanton, Joe...Pure Stock Drags

[copojoe]

Shoot, I guess i'm out of that deal, i will just show up and do time trails or something. I have headers and moser axles and a roller cam. I hope they will let me run for fun! Maybe we can setup a day for just racing for fun, put the slicks on and run what ya brung!
