Re: Jumper boxes are illegal
I wasn't paying close attention, most that still had the most obvious blinders were the T/F drivers, but my mind and eyes glaze over within about 15 seconds of Paul Page starting in.....I need a way to filter everything but the 32 seconds of racing during the 3 hours of "coverage"... LOL
Dangit!! Hi-jacked it again. sorry, I'll go cut the grass now. |
Re: Jumper boxes are illegal
I hate to continue the Highjacking but did any one hear the comment during the vegas race where a driver said something to the effect of "good thing we have the blinders to block out the sun or we would not be able to see the tree" I am going to watch it in the next couple of days and I will let you all know exactly who said it. I got it second hand so I'll have to watch it on the dvr to find out for sure. Also the new thing on blinders now it to use a mirrored shield or the blue one that simpson sells and put the blinder tape on the inside. You cant even see it from the outside it just looks like a tinted blue or mirrored visor. I have seen it on quite of few bracket racers helmets I am sure they are not the only ones doing it.

Re: Jumper boxes are illegal
It used to say every effort will be made to allow a race to take place between two cars. A reaonable amount of time will be allowed for a competitior to get his car fired. Some tracks decided on their own to post certain rules that clearly state what is and what is not allowed. Allowing your competitor a jump start in order to race is nothing more than good sportsmanship. If it is clearly spelled out that a car cannot be allowed assistance once past a certain point...than that's the rule. I was given assistance when I won a Nat'l event and it was a jumpstart. It was a long time ago and maybe they decided that is no longer acceptable. It still makes sense to me to allow your competitor a chance to race and personally if you need a jumpstart to race me...I'll wait. I'd rather race for it anyday. Some rules are dumb and this one is, especially with the advent of the portable jumper boxes common today. That's my opinion....and I won a Lucas race when my competitor stalled after his burnout......he had numerous people attempting to fix his car so it would refire.....I was in my normal staging routine and unaware of his problem. Again, I would have waited had I known of his plight but they could not fix it anyway......
