Track surface prep is never perfect for bracket races as VHT costs money so big power cars usually don't go rounds. The guys that win the track championships at the end of the year usually have a single 4 barrel BB car that doesn't do big wheel stands, break the tires loose halfway down the track and other drama. To win on a regular basis you need repeatability.

The guys with superchargers, twin turbos and such stick with the test + tunes for the most part. It's a whole different group of guys than those who compete in all the races each week.

There are a couple turbo import guys here that are very fast, but they can't race normal events as their cars will NOT do the same thing back to back.
