Starting Line Beam vs Rest of the Track

nopwradders · 04-22-2010, 07:02 PM

Hello, first I just want to say that , no, I dont run in Stock or SS. I am just a local bracket racer that just read all these responses. My question is this. Why worry about where the stripe is? Why do all this "dropping the nose", "putting a fender on someone", and just over all "sandbagging"? Dont most racers have cars that can run a consistant number or a consistant driver without having to worry about how the car in the other lane is running? Cant these racers put a number on their car and run it pass after pass? From what I have researched, this is why "package racing" is becoming so popular Best package wins. There is no nose dropping or fender racing. You have to know YOUR car, and your car only.

Can someone please explain why bracket racing has turned into a series of finding new "tricks" to beat the other car? I am not hating what you guys do. Just trying to understand.
