Ask any real racer, it isn't how you stand by your car... it's how you race your car.

There is truly nothing better than watching the comp/super stock/stock car stick cars racing at the NHRA events.

Judson Massingill would approve of this mentality. I believe he would have to have his left leg cut off before he would go to an automatic.
