Answer. $$$$$$$

Sorry Bob, Money is not the reason. I have a son who want's to race every chance he gets and a car that would make a perfect stocker with a weekends worth of work, It just doesn't make sense to me. I also have a car I can drive anytime, a legal I/SA car. It may not be the fastest I stocker but it's legal and fun and I chose NOT to race it. I also have some friends who know a thing or two about building fast stockers and I'm sure I can be fast for as cheap as possible and yet we still choose to bracket race weekly. Trust me, It's not the money.................


By the way, Congrats to Denny and Ray, in a helluva Pro final !!!!!!!!!!!

Biggest problem #1 is that most of the Stock/SS guys think they are "better" than bracket racers. Without bracket racers there would be no NHRA period. They are the ones who spend all their money at Summit, etc which is a major sponsor for NHRA. Also last time I checked Stock/SS is nothing but bracket racing unless its a same class car. Next but not least, Pro ET DOES RACE for wallys at certain races. And they are the exact same as the ones won at a divisional race. Rant over.

DOES ANYONE even have to ask?
Bracket racing is not where I'd go to see cars restricted by "rules" running fast . Bracket racing is boring. Dragsters are boring. The quality of many cars in bracket racing leave lots to be desired........ etc etc.
Class cars reflect many times the effort.

My man, you sure are pathetic. And everyone else with the negative comments . I hope your trophy case is as big as your ego.
