Some of the letters that I've seen written on cars are: S/G, S/P, S/S, etc. I think S/G stands for super gas, but I don't know what that means. Please help a "newbie" to figure out what class of car I should be looking under to buy my 1st drag car to race this summer. I hope this is the correct forum category for this question. Thank you pro's..........Rob in Toronto.
Cam help out some here.
These are the main local classes
Street/Sportsman- ET 12.99 and slower cars mainly street cars
Modified/Bracket 2/ No Box- 12.99 And faster without a delay box
some tracks also have footbrake only so no transbrake on the transmission.
Top ET/Box/Super Pro is 11.99 and faster most of these cars have a delay box and a transbrake (not all though)
Then you start racing Divsional and National Events
Stock
Super Stock
Comp Elimnator
Super Street/Hot Rod- 10.90 Index Racing
Super Gas/ Super Rod-9.90 Index Racing
Super Comp/ Quick Rod -8.90 Index
Top Dragster- Fast Dragster bracket racing
Top Sportsman- Fast Door Car bracket racing
