Brwo's at the track

Kinda like going to walmart or the mall. An on set of intelligence usually finds itself in the same area. To bad this has to be at your locall track.

The Jesus in me would be questioning that guy about is actions and what it represents, but thats me.

 

Nothing like that around here...the closest it comes to that is the staging lanes/tower area usually smells like weed and Budweiser and its Dolla Dolla bill y'all from people betting on grudge races between crotch rockets. There's not much of a car-bro scene around here at the track. It's honestly mostly coyotes and bracket racers.

 

Everytime I go to the track it consists of people in sports chairs sitting around their cars in their respective "cliques" vaping and bs'ing about cars. Then you have the large crowd by the burnout box with their phones out ready to post whatever boring content they capture to the world wide web. And lastly you have the people scattered the length of the track just watching cars go by one at a time with absolutely no response or enthusiasm. That basically sums up the track (or shitty excuse for what is a track) in San Diego.

I went to a NHRA event last year up at Auto Club Raceway however and it was definitely a whole other crowd. It fit the typical "white person who enjoys drag racing" stereotype. Hot dogs, baseball caps, tattoos, and old men shouting at cars. Fun.

 

Sadly i have YET to be at a track here in VA (spectating i have)...but in Jersey i used to run all the time back in my import (DSM) days. HATEDDD seeing that happen. but dam it was funny. Same scenario,14+ sec. Now some of my buddys have civics in the 10 and lower. Now those are fun time to watch. Esp the money runs.

 

Is there a video of this somewhere? I haven't been to a drag strip in almost 10 years, so I haven't seen this madness yet.

 

This is what it generally looks like

 

English Town (my home track) and Atco are famous for that. lol

 

Haven't ever seen that a track before.. honestly never seen anyone really near the burnout area besides track workers.

 

That's weird. The couple of times I've been to a track here and once in Washington it hasn't been bad. Only a couple staff in burnout boxes and only a pit pass (racers + crew) are allowed anywhere near the track.

I don't really like how you're looked down upon if you have anything slower than an 11 second car.

In Washington I found it very odd that I wasn't required to wear a helmet unless I was able to go so fast.

Up here I'm required to wear a helmet for any pass even if I'm using a lawn mower. Also we have a 100 ft event in town and have to wear a helmet. I'm also required to wear a fire suit because of my blower...

 

My question to you is why is this so frustrating for you? Are they holding racers up from making a pass? If they do, you should talk to the track. It's obvious to you they're do something different than everyone else, but why is that a problem for you? Are you upset over the way the act, look, dress, etc. I'm really surprised this is an issue for you that you even had to post something about it.

Now in the video below, what you don't see is there was 8 that's right 8 of us that went to the starting line for Manny's practice runs. Wanna talk about holding things up, if you didn't know any better you would of thought Manny was John Force.

Sounds to me they been watching street outlaws to much. Fake as show. In New Orleans at the da pad they stand all around the car when you burning out and racing the car. I mean a huge crowd! I don't go out because that honestly makes me nervous.
