Try defining FIRST OR WORST at the finish line on a double breakout????

The people that get it, get it & the people who don't, don't

Bob , I was just laying out the bait there.
Of course, you knew that...

NHRA, you ought to be ashamed of yourselves. To allow this lunacy of “first or worst” foul start during handicap racing to continue is borderline criminal.


You may as well alter pro racing to this: The only foul starts that count during any pro race, where both cars leave at the same time, is when the lower qualified car red lights. This would make about as much sense.


It is time to fix this to THE WORST RED LIGHT IN EVERY RACE, WHETHER HEADS UP OR HANDICAP, IS THE LOSER.

Anything less is nothing more than welfare and favoritism to faster cars.

And the beating stick has long since been used in a bonfire lol. Why can't message boards have software to prevent threads like this?

Dale, you said it all. Heck if I was planning on a red light I would've stayed at home. But we all know it's a possibility.

Everyone knows the rules when you start playing this game and you build a car. If you don't like the rules, why start? Try fishing or golf

I personally think that if you are going to care enough to complaine about this issue, then you arent going to win many races anyway. Redlights dont win.

Coming from a racer who leaves first 98% of the time,I like the way it is. Knowing what the rules were 27 years ago it made me become a better racer in my early days of handicap racing. If you don`t like to leave first,build a faster car.
