He told me about it back in the '90s, when I still lived in the San Francisco Bay area. I couldn't grasp the value of it immediately and frankly, didn't pay much attention to it UNTIL I had had time for it to soak in.
Eventually, I began to understand (I am a slow learner) and finally, one day it was cclear as a bell.
I dunno how long that took, but it was a while, as I'd been used to the first red light deal for many, many years... that was my "norm."
Bob Mickuic was a bracket racer who raced supercharged Studebakers for years.
Anyway, he's still around, and is mildly interested in the worse red light rule, but has little hope that he'll ever live to see it in place. I feel pretty much the same way.

So all of this has it's roots to the SAN FRANCISCO BAY AREA?
Are you kidding me? Now, finally this makes sense!!!
Where EVERYTHING has to be fair; they don't believe in scoring children's game's, everybody that tries get's an A....
Yes, seriously, this all makes sense now!
