Jr Dragsters At Divisionals

Yes, it's something very different and takes up time and pit space.

But it seems pretty ironic to me that we're arguing about how to gain more new racers at the same time.

Check out how many standouts in the top racing series (like F1) started out in karts. It's a bit differnent because it's a different series and venues. But it's still a big shot in the arm for gaining more participants as they age into higher forms of racing.

I got into the professional side of drag racing through Pro Stock. And though the early hype was sometimes unsufferable, I'll point out that one of the best drivers I've ever seen (still trying to decide if she is better than Jeg was) went from juniors all the way to being on the edge of setting records for championships.
