I quite liked racing my 2wd in a stock class back when we had 19turn brushed motors.
Seem to remember the racing being closer and in a mixed ability heat there was a reduced chance of lapping less experienced drivers as with a slower car they made less mistakes.
I'm not really sure if it was any difference price wise to racing mod, just that the money went on different things.
At Norfolk Buggy Club we don't cater for a stock class, only recommending that new drivers purchase a milder motor like a 10.5 or 13.5 until their ability improves. If numbers and interest was there it would be something that we'd consider, but at the present time everyone seems happy running to mod rules.
