<div class="ubbcode-block"><div class="ubbcode-header">Originally Posted By: sYc</div><div class="ubbcode-body">Any hobby, racing, fishing, golf, hunting, etc can get expensive, if you allow it to consume you. Even the &quot;pure stock&quot; guys.

Though purists do not care for bracket racing, it can be relative inexpensive, as for the most part, bracket racing is more about being consistent then going faster. Just as in the old days, you can drive the family sedan to the track and take home some $$$ and/or a trophy, if you are a good enough driver. I see it all of the time.

Well said, we are learning this via Jr Dragsters - and still spend a lot more than we need to just to be able to run right on the 'index' regardless of track conditions, elevation and weather. But, if we wanted to, we could do it cheaper by simply being slower and a little less consistent - and still have a ton of fun!

I would love to see the Stock and Super Stock cars on TV by replacing the qualifying runs from TF dragsters and funny cars..... anyone else prefer this approach?

Marlin - Absolutely on Stock and Super Stock over fuel qualifying. Oftentimes they have a hard time just getting the car to make a good pass , because they're trying so hard to make the show.
