There a huge difference in racing on street tires, drag radials, and et streets. Its a huge advantage for me running QTP's going against a LS1 on street tires. Classes broken down by tire types are very fair. I agree that its very dangerous (especially for rookie racers) to go against much fast cars. But then the faster cars are in the slick tire or heads up class (no flames from all the very fast power adder LS1 that prowl the streets). I ran my 15 second ragtop in the last half of heavy last season against 9 and 10 second cars. They do fly past on the top end. You might want to make the street tire and drag radial classes limited to 12.0 and slower. 11.99 and faster must go into the slick tire class. I think that a pre race meeting should be manditory for new racers.

I would love to have an any tire 12.0 and slower class.
