What are yall the Top End Police ? Those two guys are some of the best drivers in the Super classes . Both of them use the brake pedal when they need to . I have been accused of excessive braking before when it was actually a dip in the track that caused a wheel to lock up .

I would bet my hand brake lever that was not engine related smoke....

The same two racers ran first round the next day and Phillips won.....

I believe, they call this throttle STOP racing. Nice to see he has good brake balance. Is this a result of, not allowing the emergency hand brake system to be used? If it is, the then the separate hand brake system should be allowed for safety concerns. I always wondered, how the high MPH cars dropped back so fast at the finish line.

I am starting to get a better picture of the whole picture.

Best driver in the world or not does not give them a free pass to risk the safety of anyone else. NHRA has a rule on this but we all know how that goes.

Anyone know what the word "SHUD" and "YALL" means?
