Well I have been to the drag strip a fwe times and its fucking boring. Its the worst form of motorsports imo. Why pay so much money to spend (whatever your car runs in the 1/4) on track? Its also a sport that takes zero skill.
But im a road race guy so thats my opinion.
I don't agree, but I respect your opinion....Originally Posted by matthewAPM

It takes no skill?
So you mean to tell me you can hop in a 1500 hp car pull out a low 60ft without spinning get through the gears correctly while the g forces push you back and then keep it in the groove all at once and run a fast time and MPH?
No skill huh? If that were the case then everybody would be professional Drag racers that hopped in a car and ran it down the strip.
You can't explain to all the elitist that every driving sport takes skill to be good. Most of the time it just means they haven't tried it or aren't good at it, so they debate it.
Dan is pretty good at most driving sports and has been a pro in drag and drift. He hated drifting until I MADE him try it. He fought me for months and I had to convince him that it was the new hot shit as far as business goes. Luckily I was right. Now he loves it more than drag racing...but we all remember how much skill it took him to get that Supra into the 8's. The g's you pull alone are enough to catch you off guard.
Have I told you lately that I love you?

you've obviously never been to a NHRA race and had nitro methane shoved down your throat.
experiencing an NHRA race is one of the sickest things you'll ever experience, you simply cannot put it into words.
I'll put it in picture.
Now if i had this, i would say yey i love drag racing.
I agree. DR does take skills though (for 13 seconds at a time anyway). Road Racing takes hours of skills and concentration. Every corner matters.
