yes, drag racing may not require more skill than a road race, but it can be challenging to perfect launches and, like you said before, shifting. Have you ever tried to launch a 400+ hp car? its not just a matter of smashing the pedal to the floor. You are right about the point that usually, whoever has the faster car wins. This is the purpose of drag racing, though, to see who has the faster car, not who is the better driver...
