I raced footbrake for over 10 years--had a ton of fun--did I ever get beat by a cheater? Yep! Did I get beat by some Fantastic drivers ? Yep!
The mess you have talked about for over 4 pages is exactly why there is STILL tons of street racing---guys go to the track and are faced with all the BS -they say--THIS ain't racing! and they are RIGHT> Yea.. you should not endanger others to have fun but they are RIGHT when it comes to the junk going on at drag strips everywhere--
