To answer some questions or comments: A driver can run off their class' index or a quicker one of their choosing. The handicap start is the difference between the two cars. It's early in the day before the crowd arrives to see the big cars run. The winner has a row of flashing lights above their scoreboard. There were at least four manual cars. When two cars of the same class meet, the handicap is dropped and they run heads up. There were a few of those. If the "slow" cars had any sort of an advantage over the "fast" cars, why was only one entered? Thanks for reading.
Awesome job , glad it was just starting line action and not burnouts . The footage is awesome ! I am in Michigan and used to live out in So. Calif. . I miss going to see the Stock and Superstock classes at Pomona
@@seankennedy131 Pomona has a ton of cars also and they did the world finals and the Winternationals there . I knew people that raced in several classes , and did work on some of them , so it made it more fun when you know people on the track . Otherwise dial in / bracket racing is boring as hell . I have done it myself but heads up racing is the best . The Stock and Superstock "Class" runoffs are happening , it's the best ever , no dial ins , just heads up . I don't make it to many tracks these days , and that is why I really appreciate movies from them .
Geese thanks Tom aka captain obvious iv been going to the drags since 1970 ran a few bikes in 78 made a few fox hunts at OCIR and had some fun at lions! Life member of top fuel club at Pomona thanks for your input it's just hard to see on a tablet being my point!
That first race sucked! They used to do that at Carlsbad, Let some 18 sec car run for the big money, the faster the car the harder it is to be consistent and the turds can run the index while they read the paper behind the wheel.

Thank you Ted Evans for your kind words, I hope you can make the NHRA finals in November in Pomona. 🙏
I always told my dad that our 1982 brown Plymouth Horizon was a bad ace super stocker. This proves it.
👍👍👍
Nice footage! 5:05 Awesome Stang, man...
Great action, but where are the fans? Hardly anyone in the bleachers. Last time I was at Pomona, it was standing room only for spectators.
Thanks ! Good turnout of B Bodies!
Always wondered how they calculated the head start or lead offs.
Thanks for another great video!!!
Wish this where a heads up class nice cars
Much appreciated
Awesome , Thanks Frank 4434

Yeah I got another round from Saturday coming up.
Who won that 1st race? Not the Horizon?
Yes!
No fun if ya don't know who won?
The win lights are on top of the scoreboards!

Thats the way qualifing worked out after 2 Q shots on thursday
Those new camaro's make ugly race cars !!🤮🤮🤮
Bracket racing is not for me!
Why are you here then?
No stick cars
Boreing. I would rather watch paint dry.
Yes, they are there. Look for the ones without the A at the end of the class designation.
