I am old and witnessed it or I would not know either.

Maybe renaming it to the "Ruff Rule" would help our younger racers. Big Mike was a real bear in S/ST and it's not changed with his changing classes. But Scotty was just about unbeatable in that black and yellow firebird. Personally though I think the days of anyone running roughshod over S/ST are over. I voted to eliminate the Scotty Rule just like the majority responding to the poll on this forum.
