Default Any cars not using rear brakes?

Just curious if there are any drag cars out there that arent running rear brakes. Is it legal for nhra? just curious how youd use a spindle mount rear wheel if you have rear discs.

Thoughts?

the rotor mounts to the wheel on spindle mounts. yes you need rear brakes to pass tech. we only use them to stage the car.
