Explain to me how racing on the street saves on tires/pads/etc?
You're still flogging the car, no?
Also explain to me how hitting up the local strip is hard on brakes to begin with... if a car can stop from 300mph at the strip in the alloted run-off, I'm pretty sure you can woah down from 100 or so w/o destroying your brakes.
Hell, if you want to "save" the car, how about not racing in a straight line to begin with... drag racing is by far the most punishment you can put on the expensive parts of a car (engine, transmission) per mile!
