American Stock Car Challenge
American Stock Car Racing (ASC Racing) provides a venue for late model stock cars similar to those used in NASCAR, Southwest Tour, Grand National, ASA and other series to compete on road courses in the United States. The series was designed to bring the speed and passion of stock car racing to a level where drivers and teams without large budgets can afford to field competitive cars.
ASC Racing includes a "spec" class (ASC) which requires that competitors use the GM 350 ZZ4, GM 350 ZZ4 Fast Burn, Ford 351 Windsor or the Dodge 360 Magnum, Goodyear D2602 10" slicks, sealed shocks, and other items to keep the field even in terms of car performance and costs.
For those who just want to join ASC Racing with their current stock cars without modifying them to meet the "spec" requirements, ASC Racing also offers the ASC Unlimited Class (ASC-U). ASC-U is open to any stock car from any series that wants to join other stock car racers at any event.

Ere a rusty stock o coal-black smith
