Default Re: Spotsman Spectacular @ MIR coming soon

IHRA S/SS is Bracket racing. You just have to tow further and pay more to win less than your backyard bracket race. They hire a couple of guys to weigh you and check your fuel so it seems like its more than a footbrake race, but its not. This race is the exception to the rule as far as payout goes, but it isn't going to change the way IHRA views us. Its a 2 class bracket race to them, footbrake and handbrake. So, if you have a good footbrake or handbrake car, this looks like a good race if your in the area.

I dont think anyone who isnt coming to MIR for this race for one reason or the other will be missed. Its your choice and still a free country....I think.

Novadude,
You and your post could be the poster child of why drag racing died.
Only need 46 cars to pay the purse.
Don't you guys realize there are more expense involved than just paying the purse. You sounded just like a typical saturday night bracket racer with that comment.

I am fully aware that it takes more than the purse to put on a race. If you get enough cars to cover the purse you are still going to make money off of the crew passes and spectators. I hope it is a great success. But I am sure the rules will keep some purist from showing up.

In my mind drag racing is two cars go down and one comes back.
