You are correct! But I have friends that have real fast bracket cars!

All you wanta be heads up racers need to remember without the brack racers you'd all be famous street racers! Damn them bracket racers for keeping tracks all over the country open the last 40 years!

Its wanna be. The reason theres so many bracket racers is because if you have a pulse you can do it. My daughter hasnt even completed drivers ed and gets it done.

Maybe it's because all this small tire racing didn't exist when we started racing ??

Probly

Small tire or no tire     why race round after round for 1000$ when you can get it done in one pass

Winna.....

Round robin my shit for what. Show up with the cash and get it done on one hit. More BBQ time

Bracket Racing keeps the tracks going. Street Outlaws don't hurt either.

All the tracks around here that do any good have a little bit of all it going on. Ask any of the small tire guys , All you have to do is back the power down a little add a box. http://bham.craigslist.org/cto/4538265829.htmlYou have a instant bracket car. Last time I had mine out it went three back to back 5.62's on motor. With a complete nos tune To run a small tire car you have to have a base line and turn it up from there. Any body who grudge races or heads up races knows what you can run on a given tune. As you get close to the edge the things are more likely to happen. Just a lot more than a bunch of thugs doing stab and steer.

Not sure how the Craig's list got in there?? Must have hit the wrong button on my traction control. Lol.

There is a grudge every weekend here alot more than you would think I think we could keep it open and bring a bigger crowd too. We even have one track around the b,ham area that said it's not worth opening the gates for the bracket guys.

I don't go to the track for the BBQ. I actually enjoy running my car and one pass doesn't do it.

I do enjoy the heads up stuff, although grudge ain't my cup of tea. I don't knock another guy's type of racing...there's an ass for every seat, and it's all in point of view. Example: One Staurday at the track, I had a guy constantly coming to my pit, trying to goad me into a grudge race while I was qualifying for the electronics race. He got tired of me turning him down, and said, "I think you're just scared of going fast."
I said, "Well it sounds to me like you have no idea what your car's gonna do." He said, "Oh, yes I do." I said, "Well, good....write it on your window and meet me in the staging lanes." He declined.

It's all point of view...and it's all racing. For me, I like a lot of laps...like today, if the weather holds out, our sissy bracket race pays $5000 to win, with payouts down to quarterfinals.
