they had a good drag game at one time but then every body started to have .000 lights and on the dial with a .000. the cheating was non-controllable

Here's a screen capture of myself playing IHRA Drag Racing 2 for ps2 on my brand new computer using downloaded software. IMHO this is the best "sportsman" type of drag racing game ever released due to the vast amount of tuning you can do to the cars.

I saw excess braking on that run, lol....

I spent countless hours on IHRA 2 over the years. I bet I have built 100 different SS/Comp cars on there. I also play and love iRacing. A drag racing version would be awesome!

I am not a gamer but in this day and age where there is a lot of violence in video games so it is an awesome idea. I know my Grandkids would love it! Oh and by the way...LOL there has to be a A/S Nova combo included!

Same. Played more Burnout (all versions) and IHRA Drag Racing on a PC than I probably have any other video game ever except Madden. There was also an NHRA game on PS2 about 15 years ago that wasn't awful, but I've always wanted a more up-to-date bracket racing platform. As a kid, I remember thinking it would be cool to, for example, pick a '68 Camaro, then have options for which NHRA legal combo you wanted to run, the game assigns the appropriate class (i.e. a 350 in G/SA), and off you go.

But definitely need to include the Super Class cars and technology also. And, if you can incorporate those, I doubt it'd be much of a stretch to get TD and TS in the game too. Really, the only thing missing would be the alcohol cars and Comp. The FS cars being in the game would lend itself to some pretty challenging online heads-up racing as well.

Sounds nice, but $$ talks and there never has been enough of a market for it.
