Does anyone realize how fast I have to spin my head when a car goes by me 55 to 60 mph faster than me? It worst than watching a Nascar race. It's like a tennis match on steroids.

LOL LOL

I will be back to doing that again this season when I play in Super Stock and with my slow stocker. What you need is the biggest rearview mirror you can find that is legal to your year and of course a nice functioning side mirror. If you get enough of a head start, you can rate their wheelie in your rearview. I like the finish line drama of, will I get there, can he catch me, etc.

Is the burnout time new in the rulebook?

Super
Stock, Stock, Super Gas, and Super Street drivers may not cross the starting line on
any burnout; stationary burnout limit is five seconds.

I have been restraining myself, trying to cut back, but 5 seconds seems pretty short. Burnouts are part of the fun and the "show" for the fans....
