As I said, that's just MY opinion.

BTW, I can't afford to run a class legal car, so I have alot of fun Bracket racing... a LOT of fun! But, I don't tell anyone I'm drag racing.... 'cause I'm not.

That doesn't make it less difficult to win than a drag race. On the contrary, Brackets are impossibly hard to win, because of all the hoops you have to jump through...

It's just different. That's all.

Thanks for listening.

My wife and I are Saturday Night "Bracket" racers. When people ask us what type of racing we do, we say we bracket race. We do not say we drag race.
There are 2 types of racers at the dragstrip and I can't afford to be a drag racer, so I bracket race for fun.

Next year we will be running Pure Stock, and unless we happen to pair up with someone in the same class, then we will be "bracket" racing.

We may have to change the name from DRAG STRIP to Bracket Strip . It is all DRAG RACING ,just a lot of diff ways to do it.

The Summit deal is a great addition to the program at the Finals. It gives the "bracket racer" a great venue to run for a Championship.

Between the races at Vegas and Pomona the Pro sessions just seem to go on forever.

I can also recall at least 3 wrecks that happened between Comp and S/S.

It all added up to NHRA having to wait until the next day to finish 40 minutes of racing.

After a long weekend of racing....what happiness it was to watch my 3rd generation racing grandson almost with the final at Pomona. After 5 Wallies it would have been nice to travel home with this one. However, with your passion for the sport I'm looking forward to alot more wins and a no. 1
