Mark Tanner sent me this article about Patrick Thomas from Area Auto Racing News… Hope you are able to read it OK…
that’s a great write up for Patrick .I do believe the crate motors are what’s helping this class build up as well if you notice they run the same motor in the super stock class and it has a pretty good car count as well . the two classes with best car counts . sportsman and super stock . just need more teching not just checking motors check everything from front to rear even it means pulling rear ends apart checking for cambered tubes . etc. the rest of the classes are just pitiful .
Shorttrack, they do check that stuff.
They check something different every week, but the Officials at NSS spend plenty of time under those cars.
