Mike,

I have been to every Nationals since 1988, and I was fortunate enough to
finish in the trophies at all of them. My car was driven to each of these
events from California, including a Street Prepared Camaro. In 1992, I
drove the ESP Camaro to Kansas on Yokohama autox tires because that is all
I had that fit the wheels. The perception that competitive stock class
cars *must* be trailered is just that - a perception.
