NHRA class racing is just too difficult to understand for the novice. By the way, we race a car in Comp and hold the I/D national record.

LOL I HAVE!!!!!!! and I AM YOUNG 22 years old. I attended the Shakedown event at Norwalk last year and follow this kind of racing along with NHRA and IHRA Sportsman and im sorry but these guys spen upwards of 50 grand on these cars. They go fast and are heads up but break and wreck a ton like I called them at that race pro downtime they kept doing huge wheelstands and wrecking breaking and blowing up and basicaaly becoming more hasile than excitment but I am going to give them another shot this weekend. I have no desire to race these cars as I will never even afford to be competitive and could never afford the carnage these cars cause. I would much rather watch and race NHRA or IHRA Stock,S/S or Comp and I know with work I could be competitive in Stock or S/S and im sorry but I have no desire to race in the world of he who has most money goes and buys the biggest engine to put in his Fox Mustang and goes out and wins every race.....thats not impressive to me and never will be! MY QUESTION FOR MY GENERATION IS WHERES MODIFIED PRODUCTION!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! I WANT IT BACK and this happens alot in Drag Radial
