Fitz's guide to Stock Auto Drag racing:
Step 1: Line up on 'Start Line' so 1st and 2nd Stage lights are on (those are the yellow ones)
Step 2: Keeping the car in 'D' apply foot-brake and await for signal change to 'Green' (That means go)
Step 3: Release foot-brake and apply right foot firmly down on the accelerator pedal (the one on the far right)
Step 4: Hold on to the steering wheel with two hands (usually 10 and 2, like hands on a clock)
Step 5: Hope your car is faster in a straight line than the person next to you (otherwise you lose)
