There are tons of classes in NHRA drag racing.All the from your daily driver to Top Fuel. And Bubba youd be safer driving a Funny car that Pro stocker.Like Gary says they have verry little down force and after about 330 " You can't saw on the wheel at all or youll be on your lid.

LOL Type o there are only 4 "professional classes" But many "sportsman classes"
At a race where those pro classes are there are also Top alchahol dragster, top alchahol Funny Car,Competetion eleminator,super comp, super gas(class I run), stock, super stock, and at one national per division there is also super street(class I run).All of the other classes other than the 4 pro classes compete in the Lucas oil Drag racing series all over the country adding Top Comp in some divisions, and top dragster and top sportsman in other divisions..Then you have the summit ET series that is hosted by each track with an NHRA sanction where peopel competer in Super Pro(class I run) , Pro, Sportsman,street, and High school Which is a points series with a finals where the highest points eearners race against the other tracks in the division where the winner of the ROC represents that class for that division in Pomona at the finals for that classes national Championship.I am in a tight points battle with one race left to qualify for the race of champions(top 4 in class).I am a lock to go to the finals though(top 12).And then there are a lot of track that have weekly programs on a weeknight for street legal cars to have aplace to race...

Unreal. The safety now a days in all the series is mind blowing.

That video of that Pro Stock crash is insane. It could have been so much worse.
There is definatley alot of NHRA classes you never see on TV. The sportsman catergories are extensive. Alot of the popular classes now are the throttle -stop index classes.
