Jeff I guess we should tell guys like Brad Zaskowski and Kevin Helms w/o a time released switch on the clutch pedal their dead ducks as you say on the starting line.
Come on Jeff why in the hell would you even consider this. Ed
Point is made on the assumption NHRA will eventually combine sticks and autos. Current SS auto trans racers have access to MULTIPLE means of releasing their trans brakes at a prescribed time release.
Kevin, Brad and whoever else all have their days (myself included) but on a consistent basis, I would say there are more auto racers that can cut a "00" light more often than any stick racer. Yes, that's only half the battle, the rest is at the finish line.
You don't think NHRA would like to combine the stick & auto classes?
