Default Re: Super Por vs Pro

It doesn't matter how fast you go, a couple years back i ran a Dodge Dakota that we have that i ran in Street eliminator. I decided one year to race it in Super Pro. It was street legal, full exhaust with Hosier Quick Time Pro DOT slicks on it. it only ran 12.3's. I qualified #1 for our Bracket Finals team that year with it. Got to the semi's in the Race of Champions and went 3 rounds in the main race. That's with no electronics of any kind, just footbraking it. I ended up in 4th and 5th place overall in the two seasons that i did it. So don't let anyone tell you that you can't win in Super Pro without electronics or with a slow car. Being a slow as i was it was just as hard for them to judge me as it was for me to judge them but after running against the faster cars every time i ran i got use to judging them at the stripe that i could tell by the time a 7sec dragster got to half track if i thougt he was gonna catch me or not. I'm not saying that it's easy, but i can be done.
