Junior Dragster...

Why do they mandate either a pull rope or non permanent starter on JR's?

Now that you mention it...was kind of odd watching a couple of them being pull started...I may be wrong here but it seemed like the slower dragsters all were pull started.

A bit of a rant here...these youngsters are the future of drag racing. Was/is EXTREMELY frustrating to see the other "track photographers" either go sit on the wall or walk away when the JR's were running. It is almost like these folks don't really care about drag racings future....On another note here I have had several of the local racers, all of them guys who run in the high 11's and slower, thank me for taking/posting images of them. They told me that it almost seems like the other camera folks simply walk away when the "slower" classes are up. Which to me is BS. These guys are the backbone of drag racing. Most of these guys are towing their car in on an open trailer, with a somewhat beat up pick up truck...
