Is it more silly than a race where you can lose by going too fast? Or 7 second cars going 10.90 on a throttle stop?
This EXACTLY!
Most of the people racing cars like this are doing back-half no prep. At Us41 its from the finish line on. It's like racing in the alley. They need all the weight on the back tires from the hit. I would not personally do it but I respect the guys who are.
x2. They race on the backside of Milan a few times a year and I've spectated a bunch of them. The cars are getting more serious now but it seems to be a relatively low buck way to race heads up. None of them are able to use all of the power so it's a tuning and setup game. I don't care for the no front end look, but I definitely don't mind watching the long travel cars race on the street or any of the back of the track events.
