After reviewing nearly 500 responses from Stock-category racers regarding the usage of two-steps in Stock Eliminator, the NHRA Technical Department has rendered a final decision.

The voting results were nearly divided down the middle with 49 percent of the racers voting for two-steps to be removed from Stock eliminator while 51 percent voted for the continued use of two-steps.

Of the 51percent voting in favor of the continued use of two-steps, 61 percent voted for the application to be pedal-activated only.

?Along with their votes, most racers also included some very good opinions and suggestions,?, said Len Imbrogno, NHRA Director of Sportsman Racing and Member Tracks. "The added racer input was very beneficial to the tech department in making a decision, considering the voting was practically split down the middle."

Effective for the 2008 season, two-steps will continue to be allowed in Stock eliminator but must be either clutch- or break pedal-mounted and/or -activated. No remote button locations will be allowed.

LOL...Buttons are gone, yet the bitching continues! SHUT UP! GO RACE! GET BETTER!

It dont matter what kind of button it is, on the pedal, behind that pedal, around the pedal, when you let go of the brake your car moves! You people are IDIOTS! The majority wants to keep 2-steps, Thats the way a vote works!
