    Im looking into running some nhra bracket races, and i need to join the nhra but right now i was just curios if they have a no electronics class? Nearly all the stuff i ran was outlaw track and we had footbrake and et-1?

    Where I race we have 3 classes. Sportsman 12.00-19.99 Must have mufflers. Pro about 8.0-12.99. Can run open headers, tranny breaks. And Super pro all out electronics, dragsters and door cars. Not sure of the times for the classes. :)

    I know the track i was thinking of running has a time break but thats about all i can find on rules. Probably have to ultimately call or go talk to them.

    Hmm, for some reason the link just goes to a race results page and doesnt show results. I was actualy going to run the sunoco races they actualy pay something for winning. If i can find a comperable class.

    So basically what has been mentioned:
    1) electronics class
    2) no-electronics, but can run a brake
    3) foot brake only.
