Drag racing was a heads-up, no handicap and no breakout business.
Drag racing, to me, is two drivers and their cars, trying their best to outrun the guy or girl, in the other lane, heads-up, no holds barred. That is, no handicap, no breakout... first car to the finish line wins. Anything else is NOT "Drag Racing."

Yeah, just don't let it be in a Top Fooler, Haha car, Top Alcohol leaker, Top Alcohol haha leaker or any new car that is not factored with the correct horsepower.
What a crock of.....!
If it had not been for handicap dial-in drag racing, you and 99% of the ones that love drag racing would have been stuck in the bleachers years ago because it would have been a $$$$ only game for a select few with deep pockets. At least a regular guy can race today in brackets, Stock, SS or any other venue that has a dial-in.
And that's my opinion.
