One of the great things about drag racing, or bracket racing is that you can participate at many different levels (both performance and finance) and still have great fun!
Take me for example; over the years I'm become more involved every year. Now that my kids are grown and I'm middle-age-crazy, I race about every weekend during the race season and I'm having a blast. Also, win a race every now-and-then!
And you'll find some really great people involved in drag racing and make good friendships at the track. So, there is also a social side to drag racing.
