Do we need to send EMS? We all know you are still choking after the first to lines. Even in sarcasm, it had to be hard to get that out.

Funny thing about this thread. Other than a very obvious sarcastic reply. Nobody said it had to have the blessing or approval of anyone. Seems there are no special requirements that you have to meet either.No one design.No one and only powertrain. Which was the reason for starting the thread. So thank you all for proving that for me.

It's a weak minded individual who can only judge someone by the size of their checkbook, never mind being incapable of actually placing their check writing fingers on a piece of race equipment and accomplishing anything.

Goober 1. Nowhere did I mention a checkbook.
2. I’ll put my mechanical skills and wrench turning against you and anyone here who are not professional wrench turners any day!
3. post your big $ checks and Wallys and I’ll do the same. You’ll be embarrassed!

Actually, it is just sad that someone feels so inadequate that they can only feel better by knocking other who can do what they can not.

Prove it or stfu and you can’t, you’ve already proven you are clueless, incapable, have zero skills to install and/or assemble the most basic parts on a bracket car, you are a total buffoon Laughing very hard

Prove that you are a pathetic lil pos. No need you do it every time you post something. Only thing you can do is mouth off about others' stuff because you have nothing to add to the conversation.

I will say you are well known. Still have not met anyone who does not think your are complete idiot and sorry pos. Maybe one day.

There is an easy way to keep my post from pissing you off. Well, actually two but the easiest would be do not to click on them, Because you opinion means less than a pile of shyt.

Tell me what makes a drag race car a bracket car,

So what are the requirements?



Shoe polish/dial-in board isn't far from thruth!

IMO, it's more about driver than the race vehicle, although the type of vehicle does matter. That being said, I have won with a rental car, tow trucks, drag quads, numerous door cars & a 7 sec. truck. My son has won with the quads, motorcycle & door cars. Any vehicle can be made to win, but some vehicles take a lot more effort than the others.

Like I stated, it's more about the driver than the race vehicle.

In 2002, NHRA added an ATV Class to the bracket program. My son wanted to do this & I wasn't sure if it was going to be safe. I agreed to do the R & D on our Yamaha Banshee & when I felt comfortable with the set-up. He could take over the riding duties.

Somewhere around 2005, after building the quad to NHRA rules; I started testing & racing. This platform took the most effort of all drag vehicles I've dealt with. It didn't take long, the quad was competitive/winning both bracket & heads-up racing consistently. Somewhere around 2007-2008 we were allowed to race Div. 7 LODRS with it.

It's more about the driver than the vehicle.

ahh, the beauty of bracket racing is you can do it with any budget. A back yard mechanic who likes to tinker and make his own stuff or someone who spares no expense and pays someone to work on their junk. They both can compete in bracket racing.

Some do well in street cars others choose, roadsters, chassis cars or rails.

To me, you just need to figure out the tree and make whatever you're in repeat, nothing special.

No where did I mention any name or individual.

You sure saw that shoe, and laced it right up.

Thanks for being so predictable. Laughing Hard
