I disagree 
(of course)
I think its all about going faster than i have previously. I go to beat my best time usually. Or sometimes to go for mph.. or to work on my 60'... and so on. Thats my goal, I dont care who i race... tho its always nice to spank other people it isnt always my goal at the track.
I just like to go race and talk cars with other racers... thats what its all about to me. Plus at the track its easier to filter out the BS.

Drag racing rules.
Just go to our local drag strip on a Friday night and you see for yourself.
All kinds of cars racing agaisnt each other to see who has a faster car.
Also you get to challange yourself to see if you can beat your best time.
I garantee no one would ever describe drag racing as boring after sitting shotgun in my WRX on my 12.7 @ 108mph run.
How could anyone describe drag racing as boring when your running a 3.9 sec 0-60mph with all 4 wheels spinning?
I guess it would be boring if you went drag racing in you moms Van. Hey, that would be fun too.

That was on an ugly *** Arctic Cat Thundercat
1000cc snowmobile with a decently built motor. Basicly milled heads, mild port work, full race pipes... Made 235hp @ the crank weighs 700lbs with me on it.
Thats actually not that fast for a sled.
One of my friends has a 1400cc sled that ran 9.2@143mph or so... There are guys in the low 8's
Lemme see if i can find a pic...

Here is a pic of me on my bro's pretty much stock 800 tripple.
Ran high 10's.
I got a ZRT600 with minor mods to run 11.0@116mph 600cc sled
Being light has its advantages somewhere... I'm refered to as "Human Nitrous" by the sled guys. When the want to break their previous record, they let me run it.
I have made hundreds of 10 second passes on sleds. For a while I thought I would never race a car again.
But banging gears in a car is always fun no matter how slow you go
btw thats smoke from the track spinning
