Red Light Answer

Mike,

I didn't fully answer your question, so here goes:

The Stage-Loc and starting beams read only from the center of the starting line ... Not from the outside (as is the case down track). Actually, there is no outside lens for the Stage-Loc beam!

From looking at the photo, it appears to be impossible for the flash to go through the vehicle. Before I built my own track, I used to put shoe polish on the front rims because the starter told me that the bright sunlight might' ve caused my red light.

I found out the reason after investing millions. You guys get for free. Trust me, I know how it works and am glad to help answer your questions. Now, if someone can just explain to my wife and I the reason we have to bury our son tomorrow...

Chatting on this forum helps to get my mind off Philip's death, at least for a few minutes. Thanks for listening.
