Hollywood Hills Speedway 2008 Street Stock Rules

Printable Version

   The vision for the Street Stock division is to provide an avenue for the participants to build racecars that are more technically advanced than the Hobby Stock division.

   The Hollywood Hills Speedway, Street Stock rules are designed to encourage a safe, competitive stock car class that allows a limited amount of performance modifications, while keeping a limit on spending.

   In no way will the rules be interpreted to allow a car that is technically superior to dominate the class or to be constructed in an unsafe fashion that poses a danger to the operator or other competitors.
