Anyobdy know of a good drag racing simulator?
I sure wish Papyrus would come up with one. They do such a great job
with the other sims out there.

Drag Racing?

An old game called car & driver used to have as an option, a drag racing
strip, although the cars were not drag racers, just humble performance
cars, eg:- Porsche 959, Ferrari F40, Mercedes C11, etc.

Simple burn ups against one other car and the clock were available.
(The game was made by Electronic Arts).

I have an old game "Street rod" 1&2. I has drag racing in it, on the street
and on the track. The setup options are trivial, like engine size, transmission, etc.
The game's only worthy simulation is the light tree starts (3 lights).
Good for training reaction.

I have both of those as well. They had a good thing going with building up
cars by buying parts out of the newspaper or winning cars by taking pink
slips, etc. and would like to see the game redone, but I am interested in a
professional drag racing simulation with the various classes and tuning and
setup options, including Top Fuel, Top Fuel Funny Car, Pro Stock, etc. and
all the drivers. I would love to line up against a virtual John Force,
Warren Johnson or Kenny Bernstein or any of the other top NHRA drivers.
