No dial ins just index to index. I ran a SS/AM car my index is 13.85. They had taken down the dial in boards because it was late and they were looking to get out as quick as they could. From inside the car I could not see the et boards at the end of the track. I left and went green. The other car roared by me before the 1/8 mile. The win light in my lane was not on, so he didn't red light. When he got to the finish line his light came on. I thought I might have had something going away, so I stayed into it almost to the finish line (when I noticed my rpms were way up there). When I got my time slip. I saw they had me on a 11.40 index. I was willing to accept the loss but I didn't want the run to count (it was .002 away from an instant hit) . They looked up the rules (racers are responsible for checking dial in's, the tower is responsible for index's) and made us rerun the next day and the first run didn't count.

Having a crew guy also checking for the proper dial helps. Drivers have alot on their minds at times.
