Default Re: Congrats Brad Burton - Spring Fling Vegas Thursday winne

Thanks Michael. It's tough to bracket race a stickshift car in the northeast. The only way is to run super pro against 50K dragsters with delay boxes. Hopefully that nobox deal will encroach a little further this way.

North Carolina and NHRA Div. 1 are the strongest Footbrake areas.

In some "No-Box" areas, the vast majority are running a transbrake, but in others, there remains a high percentage of footbrakers, despite being allowed more driver aids by the rules. (ie., I run Super Stock, but still footbrake and shift by hand, etc.) I think Texas and the southeast (SC through FL) are the most split right now.
