I doubt it's ahead games thing for the most part. If you get rattled that easily you should reevaluate some of your own racing program. Heads up runs can have you making a lot of last minute thrashing too. There are usually reasons for that delay though.

Don`t you find it somewhat odd that is is typically the same small group of racers that tend to be the last ones to the staging lanes? Also if I was running multiple classes, I would certainly try to be one of the first to the lanes in the first category I was competing in. But, I have seen a couple of guys running classes slated to run back to back, still show up near the end of the first class.
