Default Another Newbie..Gonna have lots of questions lol

Hello,
I am new to drag racing and will no doubt have lots of questions as I learn the sport and finish my build. I come from the truck pulling world and decided to get into drag racing because its cheaper from the build to maintenance to hauling etc. and Bunker Hill is less than 20 minutes from the house.

I intend to run the Pro bracket at Bunker hill and possibly 1/4mi at either US41 or Muncie but I'm not yet sure what NHRA class the truck will fit into.
If the HP and ET sim software I have is somewhere close, the truck will be in the high 9's to very low 10's on the 1/4.
I'll start a thread on the project in the build section.

Alan

Hi Alan, you have come to the right site if you are seeking info on Stock or Super Stock racing. If you are going to run brackets then this site may not be beneficial to you. If you intend running your truck in a class, then you need to go to NHRA or IHRA site and look into their rule book for the correct classification and requirements.

Do not know if drag racing is less or more expensive. The "RULE" applies with any motor sport. "How fast do you want to go and how much money do you have"

Just realize that this sport breaks your heart quite often for great rewards.

U/SA time (elapsed) and money are two different things.
