I guess it depends if you go to the track to walk or talk. Walk - toss a dial in on the window or get in a heads up class and race. Talk - go to grudge race night and spend 5 minutes a race argueing the brake, leave, lengths, etc. and all the other postureing that goes with street racing. The grudge race nights at Milan - your "race" is supposed to be set when you hit the water box, but it seems there is always last minute nonsense that slows the racing down. I go to a drag strip to race - If I wanted that kind of drama I'd watch Jersey Shore.
