If you guys are tired of all the politics of drag racing, check around, there are meets all over the US that are heads up racing.
I just went to one in August that had five classes.Gas/Coupe/sedan, Comp-Gas/coupe/sedan, roadster, Comp/roadster and dragster class.
Every class was heads up and winners were awarded trophies.
Its not about money, its about bragging rights and having fun.
