I'm looking at kingman street drag pictures. Sure does look like they are promoting safe LEGAL Street racing. NOT the total opposite like SO. If you can't tell the difference, I don't know what to tell you.

It's still street racing! So where should NHRA draw the line? Street Outlaws is legal when they draw the permits for their main races & maybe they do that for their test hits also. |

NHRA is not regulating anybodies off-track behavior anyway. They are regulating who races with them. Fully within their rights. And street racing is stupid. Cars are much faster than they were when NHRA started, and there is much more traffic. Fifteen seconds flat was not a real slow street car back then. In 1962 I held the track record at the Tulsa North Airport track with my '56 Chevy at 15.10, 92 MPH. You can buy new pickup trucks faster than that now. Cars weren't all that fast when Wally may have raced on the street.

I just don't know what to tell you. You can't see the difference in the total message of the two? All you see is Street, so it must be the same thing. I can't help you

I see the differences, but NHRA wants drag racing done on the track period! So it doesn't matter to them how it's done on the street. So, it's the same in NHRA's eyes. Total message, NHRA does what they want & our opinions right or wrong doesn't matter. ![]() |

You two are right, just like Obama thinks he's right.
