I agree. I'm been PM'd by others. Consider 2-Steps allowed with a stick.
Thanks Jeff !

If you think a footbrake automatic has an advantage on a PRO Tree over a Stick what the hell are you drinking. This is a Pro Tree class isnt it? If so there is NO way you can leave footbraking with a stick. If you think you can lets go grudge race somewhere just bring lots of $$$$$$$$.

Regardless of tree a clutch without a two step is not as consistant as a converter and a footbrake, imo.

If this is to be a "Pro" class, then there should be some "pro" driving. With all due respect to guys out there that are better than me (and there are ALOT out there) I don't need to see a glorified bracket race with guys using high-dollar, historical vehicles (or copies) that are nursing them along with modern-day electronics & gadgetry --- it's too easy. Now if, in your view, using your car means it may get damaged, or whatever, fine --don't run the series. Guys like me can respect you & your car for what it was and let's everyone be happy. But for the serious admirer of good 'ol P/S-match racing this is where the series can shine & the teams can get a loyal, active following, just like the old days.If I could ever get rid of this Altered I'd seriously look at building a car for this despite living a thousand miles away--- come to think of it, I may build one anyway . Any how, th epoint is, as I said before some guys are forgetting the purpose of the series and what it represents. Look at the original ideas, think it over & if you like it, run it. This trying to make exceptions/excuses for cars seems to me, as a racer & a potential spectator is BS-----just my

I don't recall the Pro tree being around in the early 1970s. Didn't they run off the old five yellow tree back then?

Sort of off topic... I've come to the realization that time constraints and family will not allow me to complete my own Nostalgia Pro Stock project. Ergo, I offer my 73 Duster, rust free TX car with a brand new 9" and 4 link. Thought I'd throw it out here before I put it on eBay next week. $7500. PM if interested. Thanks.
the wheels are incorrect
A guy with an automatic in his car is going to talk about another guys wheels.

I've had the pleasure on more than one occasion. What a character! Of all the old heads I've talked to, Hill and Herb Sr. are the only ones who remember the cars like it was yesterday. I love the fact that he used to be in "collections." Here's Roy in 1978 (I think).
