Yay another fixed race!

I am strickly a "low buck", part time racer (as you can see by the cars in my sig). I don't go to the tracks with "big" races. This spring I did go to the Gatornationls, on Thursday, for qualifying. The first cars I saw were "super" class cars. On the first run, the cars left like ganbusters, then they both "broke" (or so I thought), then they took off again. I thought WTF? The next pair did the same thing, HUH? Then the dawn came. In my opinion, that is the most stupid thing I have ever seen in racing. No wonder there is no spectator appeal. Can you imagine trying to explain that to someone that is at the track for the first time?
