I've yet to go in the FRS though; the one time I planned on going with some friends they were closed because of 'the weather'. Drag racers are a bunch of pansies when it comes to weather... "Oh a cloud in the sky that's not bright white! Close the track, Close the track!!! But then again High horsepower, terrible handling machines that are mostly automatics is a recipe for disaster. Much different than roadcourses... "Oh it's raining...Y'all be safe and go have fun!"
Your post starts out intelligent and then toppled downhill quickly. One of the more unintelligible things I have heard....do you have any idea why those high horsepower cars cannot run in the rain? Do you know how 200+MPH on drag slicks and a wet track would go? It would not end well. Grip levels are near zero.

As for being a bunch of pansies....do you ever go ice skating in the summer when its 90 degrees out? You can't, the equipment and surface don't agree.

A true enthusiast will understand and respect all kinds of racing.

I have no idea why people enjoy drifting, but the guys who do it have bucketloads of talent I will never have, hats off to them.

Grow up.
