you guys have to be kidding, there is no such thing as a good looking street stock, they are just rubbish bin racers and are not realy a good image for the sport of speedway!!!

So you dont like stockcars or superstocks either then,If you look at it back in the day they were really streetstocks too
Normal cars with xtra bars....

I agree with the "no such thing as good looking streetstock" opinion and I don't.
If I see a to tidy streetstock pull out on the track I tend to think either brand new or hasn't been driven like a streetie should be. If I see a dented, beaten up looking streetie I tend to think, I know what you have been doing to get the car looking like that. As an ardent supporter of the class I know which car I would be watching.

So to me a good looking streetie is no where near as good looking as a rough looking streetie ;D

And you race what?How many of the top competitors in other classes have come out of Streetstocks and if were offered a drive wouldnt hesitate.Some of us will own one forever.

I agree with the comment about the bad looking ones hit more but in saying that if you cant afford the fines that are being handed out now for the silliest little thing and with everything being so PC at the moment the class has got less aggressive but the last meeting at the glen is what streetstocks are about and the crowd would love to see more of that i bet but from behind the scenes most of them drivers got at least a 60-100 buck fine,so by tiime you spend all week in the garage panel beating and re painting ect to get it looking good plus gas ect then a fine it adds up.

yea i agree with that there was to drivers that got fines that i no of one got a 60 and the other got a 100 i mean to me they didnt do anything that bad to get that. one even tryed to advoid it but looked liked it was to late but the refs are getting to hard.
i reakon that there should be a night where the refs should jump into the cars them selfs and let the drivers ref and lets see how they like that.
if the refs are reading this STOP BEING SO HARD ON THE DRIVERS

[knownotmuch]

It must be a difficult class to ref. Contact is encouraged, but with limitations that must be hard to stick to when driving round the track at full noise. Can make for a great spectacle when drivers are able to take the rules to the limit, without cross that fine line.

Back to the topic, I tend to like certain styles of car rather than paint jobs. Chargers and big Station Wagons tend to catch my eye.

the best car is 4p Patrick Swayzee. And the most handsome driver is Dingbat Dingwall. He is Wicked !!! The PT Cruiser is the best looking Stockcar in Australasia !!!!!

All the credit must go to everyone that has been helping put the car together and Keith and Paul at Aussie Spares for doing a great job with the painting and stickers.It went well yesterday but plenty of room for improvement.Thanks guys I will try and keep it tidy
