that sounds like a bracket race. no electronics is also called footbrake at some tracks. electronics class is where you can have transbrakes delay boxes throttle stops etc.after you make a couple of qualifying passes you just write what you think the car is going to run on the window.when you line up the slower car leaves first and whatever the difference is in the two cars times is the head start they get. then the faster car trys to catch him. the first car across the line without running faster than their dial in wins.if you have a trans brake and dont have to use it you should probably run in the no e class.the electronics class is pretty brutal. unless you can cut a .005 light everytime and run within .005 of your dial in.

you say theres no delay boxes... well i have a progesser for my n2o... is that concidered delay? the car come out the hole with 85% to 100% after 2.5 sec. then another stage comes on after 3.5 sec....?
