>oh look at me, I spent more money than you and floored it>I wonWhat is the fucking point? Biggest athletic-surrogate cope ever.
>>29061909Look I don’t care for it but it’s not ‘gay’. There is still a lot of effort involved in competing to go the fastest in a straight line.
>>29061915Maybe I used the wrong image, I just chose that one because it's a literal homosexual driving that car. I'm talking about street drag where it's just two faggots in street cars and he's like "nuh uh, I'm going to push my gas pedal better than you and win with the car I spent more money on". How can you take credit for doing NOTHING. There was a little skill to it back in the day when you needed a manual for a serious performance car, but nowadays a manual is a liability and just slows you down, so the faggot in the Tesla scoots ahead. All of that "I'ma gap you" shit is so fucking faggoty gay.
>>29061909Visited Bluesky about a month ago.Saw 'Drag Race' was trending.Clicked thinking I'll get to see insane flames shooting out of drag cars.Its about drag queens beaty contest.;|
>>29061909Drag racing is much more about the engineering and building of a car, rather than the actual driving. It's not particularly exciting to watch unless you know the people competing and how much they've put into their builds.
>>29061918Yes this is regarded, unless it's motorcycles vs motorcycles, bc they are hard to launch correctly.
>>29061909>oh look at me, I spent more money than youThat’s the entire ”””car community”””” at this point
>>29061950Why is there not more pushback on "I spent more than you" and require a show of handling skill for clout? If you can't drive corners, you can fuck right off.
>>29061909Hooning your nan's Holden isn't as legitimizing of a reason to detract from drag racing as you think it is and no your mad skidd is not harder than launching a high powered go kart meant to go 0-170 in 5 seconds
>>29061918>I'm talking about street dragTHEN WHY DID YOU POST A TOP FUEL DRAGSTER
>>29061969In this world, having more money gets you further than having more talent.
drag racing is really gay
>>29061909If it's so easy then why is your car so slow? Maybe if you got your money up you'd be less butthurt
>>29061909There is a reason that it isn't called RuPaul's F1 race.
how bad do you think op just got gapped
>>29062056Not as much as a drag racer gets gaped.
>>29062068>get beat at a stoplight>start thinking about anal sex
>>29061985As I mentioned, because it was a literal gay pride dragster. "Pro" drag racing is pretty bullshit, too, though. I can respect the build behind it, but being a drag driver is like "hold the wheel straight and yank this lever a couple of times", it's not that deep. Scary/dangerous=/=skill.>>29061991Probably the #1 think I hate about "car culture". Back in the day, a good driver that could launch and shift a manual really well could beat up on higher spec cars, I used to do it all the time, but now with Tranny-ass Teslas, you literally auto-drive to victory, what the shit is that?>>29062002I have a 450hp R34 Skyline, I wouldn't call that slow, but there's always something faster and I just don't see the point in spending boatloads of money to floor a pedal on the highway and say "haha I beat you!" Class lap record on a circuit track? Yes, that is respectable.
>>29061909You’re projecting as usual
>>29061918Its nog coded. Yes its gay. The cringiest thing about people in their early 20s is how much they ape blacks.
>>29062456Boy mad his Miata got clapped up
>>29063198Did you really reply to a post with a 450 hp Skyline claiming they own a Miata?
>>29061909most motorsports are gay as hell. the only exceptions are spec car shitboxes.
>>29063744You don't own a Skyline you, in fact, own a Miata
If a pride organization would fund me a race car, I'd slap rainbows and bad dragon ads all over it.Drag racing is simple fun. Also you don't know about shallow staging with early rollout and bracket racing among other things. And on the road you can brake boost if you've got a turbo in rolls.In bracket racing you claim a time that your car can do. The one closest to the time they claimed wins, going faster disqualifies you.
>>29063830Bracket racing is gayer than actual homosexual intercourse. Just set up some buzzers and have a competition to see who can hit it when the timer hits 10 seconds the most accurately, there's no sense even involving a car. I've never met a single soul that thought drag racing was cool that could drive for shit.
>>29063954>that thought drag racing was coolSee? There it is. You care only about how others perceive things. "What if someone sees me doing this and thinks I'm gaaaaaayyyy? Oh heavens!"I just see it as good clean fun. A cheap thrill. I have never cared if if I won or lost and I've been in easily 200 such races.I much prefer track racing and drifting (solo for fun, not as a sport) but I'm not turning down any chances to wind out the gears.Back in the '00s when the tuner era was going on I'd get in at least 2 a week and I went to the legal test 'n tune on Fridays in the summer. 200 might be a low estimate.The best are the nighttime highway rolls where you know the other car is down to clown and it's not decided until like 130mph.
>>29063957Incorrect. I think it's gay as fuck and also wanted to bring in the fact that everyone else that actually knows how to drive that I've met also think it's gay as fuck. I don't associate with faggots, so therefore by process of elimination you must be a faggot to like it.>le cheap thrillIt's not thrilling at all. Straight line acceleration is boring as fuck, and worst of all you have to wait around all god damn day for your 10-15 seconds. Worst waiting-to-activity ratio of all time.>roll racing to 130 mphThat's even more cringe because once you get above about 70~80 there's ZERO skill involved.Just say you suck shit at driving and let's move on. Drag racing sucks and only talentless faggots like it.
>>29061909Drag racing is very gay which isn't a bad thing anymore btw. Nothing wrong with being gay, you know what's ugly and not gay? The corvette. Disgusting.
