Congrats Brad Burton - Spring Fling Vegas Thursday winner!

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.

The southeast and mid-south has a number of areas that are starting to go No-Box, at least per Bracket Finals rules, but a lot of tracks are holding out, too. 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.

We permit a 2-step on Stick cars at our Footbrake events (Loose Rocker Promotions - www.looserocker.com ). Didn't know you weren't allowed in your area. Come on down for a $5K/$20K/$5K Fall Footbrake Frenzy, Thanksgiving weekend in NC! I've actually been toying with the idea of doing a Stick Shootout at that event just to get more stick cars to participate. We usually have a couple, but I know there's a lot more out there between the GearJammers, Pro Stick, and other associations.

Sounds great! Thanks for the info and invite?

I wonder what was wrong with the right lane not a single winner.
