Sam1647545489 Posted December 2, 2005 Report Share Posted December 2, 2005 Because anyone with a 14 sec car can win the event. Why would anyone wanna bracket race. Why not try to go faster and run a better time. I feel that bracket racing is for someone who bought a car that will run whatever E.T. and then has no money to make it go faster so they bracket race and run the same ghey slow ass time the whole time. http://forums.offtopic.com/images/smilies/gfight.gif http://forums.offtopic.com/images/smilies/hsughno.gif http://www.slicky.net/smilies/xmasohnoes.gif http://www.slicky.net/smilies/xmaskekegay.gif http://www.slicky.net/smilies/xmaseek5.gif Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

MrMeanGreen Posted December 2, 2005 Report Share Posted December 2, 2005 I do race heads-up when at a track. If you fuck up, you lose. I don't bracket race, I just have a car that's very consistant at running similar times. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest Removed Posted December 2, 2005 Report Share Posted December 2, 2005 I'm better at a heads up tree then a bracket tree, on a bracket tree I can still pull .050 or better. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

WWD JUNK Posted December 2, 2005 Report Share Posted December 2, 2005 Try watching the IHRA top sportsman class if you think bracket racing is for slow turds. It's also the only way you can have any kind of competitive races against cars that are completely unregulated in regards to performance. There is a lot more to bracket racing then having a car that runs consistant ET's. If that's your conception of what it's all about, then that's probably why you've had such little success in doing it. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

If you have a fast car, and you constantly run and cant run close to the same E.T then you cant drive end of story. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
PCarillon Posted December 2, 2005 Report Share Posted December 2, 2005 If all racing was heads up it would come down to who has the most money 90% of the time.In Bracket racing the feild is equalized so too say.It comes down to who knows their car the best,there reaction time and driving ability.Its lets anybody be able to compete no matter what you have or have to spend.You have to be able to dial your car to weather changes,drive the strip and its fun Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Anyone can enjoy the sport of bracket racing. You dont have to have a fast car and you dont have to have tons of money. Also great for people starting to learn to race and great for people who want to better there times, driving and whatever. Good post!

Mattsv8 Posted December 2, 2005 Report Share Posted December 2, 2005 id have to say that i have never seen a 14 sec car in super pro, or pro classes. if im right the slowest allowed in pro is 12.99 or 13.99 and in super pro its 11.99. maybe some people are racing in the wrong class. like street. youd have to expect 14s in the street class. or the import class. but i still like my import gets good gas mileage. my 2 cents Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Sam1647545489 Posted December 2, 2005 Author Report Share Posted December 2, 2005 Well I guess is my reason for not liking bracket racing. I did it and was paired up to a chevette. Guy dialed in a 18.1 time. I dialed in a 12.5 (old car). He was I swear at least 65-70% down the track before I even got to take off. He beat me by a small margin. He ended up runnin a 18.2 to my 12.8 something. :bs: Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
