Default 2 strokers?

I was sittin in class thinking of cars again
Then i started thinking of my 200cc KTM (Two Stroke)
and was thinking, they make 2 stroke cars back in the day... Why not now?
I mean i know sorta why
mainly because of pollution and efficency..

Like my KTM could blow any 4 stroke 200cc engine away!
or, it'ed be pushin it, even a 400cc 4 stroke.

But the point im getting to is.. Why don't they use 2 stroke engines in stuff like drag racers?
They are light weight, put out extreme amounts of power for their displacement, and can run like mad (with our new technology).

HOwever, they don't use them on dragsters because of oiling issues.

They eat too much.

Personaly, i think a 2 stroke could turn some heads.. When runing.
(we all know the dreaded flooding of the 2 stroke)
Then we will be using our Either*sp like or NOS.
