What really is "STOCK"????

[Blkout]

I know the term stock is VERY flexible for some Demon owners.

 

[Phizzle]

I think stock is how you bought it from the dealership. Anything added or extras not from the dealership is a "mod".

@Linda's Hell Cat OMG you totally missed the theme of this thread.

Or you gave a typically bad Match Game answer that made the contestant want to throttle one of the celebrities.

No Way! Weird Harry Never Changes his Shoes / Stock Tires..........Always wears the same thing / No dressed up engine .......Hasn't had any knee or hip surgery / No upgraded suspension No heart surgery / No engine upgrades............see I Match game was on TV after school when I was growing up

Go for it ! You will survive the 1/4 mile isn't that long!

The OP was just asking but the rules for racing do not always match ......aka off the Show room floor.

I just thought Weird Harry was so weird he'd probably take a wiz in his fule tank thinking he's adding octane

I don't consider tires modding. No car can perform the way it can from the factory without an appropriate tire to get its power to the ground

The stuff you buy in abox that says vegetable stock.

In stock form my cat gets its ass kicked at every light
An old man on an ebike beat me thru the intersection

Stock is stock as factory delivered. Period. Did you order your Demon all fat and stupid just to realize your "friend's" cloth interior single-seater is better at your private racing ass-grab mouth hugging parties - just to start stripping it down? Too bad genius, you fucked yourself.

Claiming stock? Prove it and show me your build sheet - we know you have it in the glovebox because you like to pull it out at the local Cars and Bullshitters.

Change a tire or wheel and it isn't stock. Oh you wanna talk NHRA/IHRA/NMCA/YMCA rule interpretations? Go cry to your Mama.

Stock is not painting your engine. But the rest is. It's the but that get's ya.

When you see the discussion on FB you really have to wonder how much of people's lives they leave open to interpretation?

It mostly sounds like "am I gay if I have sexual intercourse with other men"? The next thing you know you've got a debate about "tip depth" and "top or bottom" and the "amount of men in the room". Etc. Etc.

Somebody needs to take a definitive and objective stand on the matter of what stock is, and stop trying to give eachother a reassuring reach-around supporting their individual definitions and agendas. FWIW, it is okay to be non-stock in the same way it is okay to admitting to being gay. Just be honest with yourself and others around you.

With the power levels of cars currently, "stock with a tire" is about the same as stock to me. To me it's way more about whether the stock tune is still on the engine with minimal or no bolt-ons or not.

The Navy's version of that - "It's not gay if you're underway"

Demon owners are liars.

So is this your way of telling us.....you're gay????

A little, but only for you.

My car is heavily modded: as delivered from FCA....with a catch can. OH, and a USB drive full of music.

 

[Hellcat Cuda]

Technically still stock:

Ahh.....no.

Ok....I confess.......I don't think my car's gay (it's ok if it is).......but since it has a few mods, maybe it's "trans-stock".
