Quote: So those of You whom are so selfrightous about watching the stupid contrived 'street outlaw' program feel better? In my opinion the show is pitched to the stupid who believe that drag racing is all about racing (or crashing) on public roads in Oklahoma. Talk to real Bracket Racers,.. Most feel the show is weak and staged and phony as to any real race value. If those cars are so unique or fast or ???? Have them go to a track and time the damn things or have them actually compete against other 'fast' but safety certified real race cars. This plays to the non-reality shows the public lsps up. You guys keep bad mouthing NHRA all You want but Your premier 'nostalgia' races like the March Meet aare at NHRA Tracks as the track safety is there. How many ambulances You have out there in Oklahoma or anywhere else the morons race? The is s a hollywood made up [Edited by Moparts - Family Friendly Site - Keep it clean] series the dumb have become addicted to,... nothing more. How many of You critics of NHRA actually race? Boats need not answer but I know You believe You are the worlds authorities on everything from Your comments.
I only read far enough to see this stupid post. I say stupid, because you have NO CLUE of what you are speaking on. Every one of these cars meets safety specs for the ETs they run. They also race in a "controlled environment" with a full safety crew and medical personnel on site. Every car was safety inspected and stickered, by get this, an NHRA tech guy. Now while I have personally chided some of the guys for being out "testing" without all their safety gear on, that does NOT fly on the actual "race night" when the full production crew is on the controlled site.
And these cars are raced on the track at times, as they ALL test at tracks at various times, to gather data. You don't think they are fast, that's your opinion, which I will state is also WRONG.
Also I feel sure I can speak for the guys on the show, by saying they could care less what "some" bracket racers think of the show.
As for NHRA..........these hypocrites should get their OWN house in order, before they even attempt to criticize someone else. It's just a grandstanding ploy, because the show is kicking their butts in the ratings. Seems to have backfired on them.
