Hey Phat, after re-reading your posts and now hearing the actual reasoning behind them, I apologize for the over reaction.
Please understand that every website/page that "pure stock" gets mentioned (even AMC sites, with hard-core AMC guys who are real enthusiasts) tell me REPEATEDLY that those cars NEVER ran that good stock! They have never attended the Pure Stock drags, let alone even read the rules on the website, which I even always provide a link to. Many cars there actually are dead stock, and many are not (nor have to be) as they are built to the extent of the rules as mine is, and are driven by somewhat more experienced drivers. I can't even imagine where the image in some peoples minds comes from that this race is tech'd on some national level security and strick as Catholic school. It is purely class racing to a set of rules, no more than any other class in the country with the word "stock" in the title.
My point is, I'm pretty worn down by all the ignorance out there about one of the most fun races I have ever had the pleasure of participating in. And, I took your question entirely the wrong way. I'm not too proud to admit it, either. Sorry man!

Seems like the new trans ratios were effective.

Lol Rick! Well, I did win 3 out of 3 against the 1972 "Heavy Chevy" 402 c.i. in the shootouts. But, no champion status. 😄
I'm glad you were able to come hang out again this year!
