just out of curiosity because ill never know how much fun is it really to race when the guy in the other lane is irrelevant and has no chance to win whatsoever just because youve got him covered by three or four tenths and you dont even need to try to cut a light just wait for him to leave and run him down? Thats fun? Dont get me wrong watching guys spray 300lbs of nitrous and doing wheelstands that start at the 1/8 mile and demolishing cars is entertaining but its even more entertaining putting them on the trailer when they try to bracket race.

Isn't there a bracket race section here?

No nerve touching.
Just you come on here spouting your opinions, and think everyone thinks like you.
Stock and Superstock are performance based.
That means you build a car for the class if someone is faster than you, you change classes, wait till they get factored, or work harder (spend more money).
Bracket racing requires almost no car skills. Your daily driver can be as competitive as a 8 second dragster.
But you have to realize these cars have no class.

No nerve touching here either, just don't expect to come onto a Stock/ Super Stock forum promoting bracket racing and expect all to agree with you. That would just be silly. Jim

Yup, the economy has hit all racers. Some class cars might be forced to regress back to local bracket racing. The majority of class cars have much more invested in their drive trains and are purpose built to run like classed cars and be able to come out on the winning end of a heads up run. A loss is a loss whether it's to a $10,000 bracket car or a $150,000 factory race car. Most class racers I know don't like to lose to either. Jim
