Some people just don't get it. Drag racing is won on the starting line. Unless it's lame boring ass bracket racing.
When you "tree" someone and hold the lead all the way to the finish line you win in heads up drag racing. It doesn't matter who ran a faster ET.
BRORING ass bracket racing gives the slower car a handicap. Let's say car 1 runs a 14:00 and car 2 runs 13:00. Car one gets a 1 second head start. As long as he gets to the finish line first without going faster then his 14:0 dial in time he wins. If he runs a 13:99 he looses no matter what.
Let's say car 1 runs a 14:60 on a 14:0 dial in and car two runs a 12:99 on a 13:0 dial in. Car 1 still wins because he didn't break out even though he's slower. Bracket racing is like racing the clock without going faster then your dial in time. It makes both cars equal no matter which car is faster. You could have a 18 second car beat a 9 second car because of the handicap and dial in.
Bluebeast is racing heads up. That race is won on the starting line. Let's say for example the mustang cuts a better reaction time and gets out of the gate first and keeps the lead all the way. He just won. Even though the vett ET a faster time. If the vett cut a better light and held that lead all the way the vett wins.
