Default Re: A case for Tru-Start

Hey Mick, let's say that you and I race. You get to the line first and break-out by .05. I get to the line a car behind you and break-out by .03. The win light doesn't come on until MY car crosses the line. You're out by .05, I'm out by .03, I win. But the win light doesn't come on until my car crosses the line.

Now let's say that you and I race again. You get to the line first and break-out by .03. I get to the line a car behind you and break-out by .05. Should MY win light come on when your car crosses the line because you were the first one to break-out?

If the first to go red is the loser on the starting line, then it's only fair that the first to break-out should be the loser at the finish line.

The only reason that this has come up now is that the technology to do it didn't exist till now. This isn't any different to Stock and SS than replacement carbs and aluminum heads are. But I guess that the "fast" guys aren't having a problem with them.

Cool Re: A case for Tru-Start

I feel in an effort to level the playing field one should only be allowed to edit 9 out of every 10 posts...

Time for a classic, dead horse strategies...about as pertinent as most of the posts here and you may enjoy...

1. Buying a stronger whip.

2. Changing riders.

3. Threatening the horse with termination.

4. Appointing a committee to study the horse.

5. Visiting other sites to see how others ride dead horses.

6. Lowering the standards so that dead horses can be included.

7. Re-classifying the dead horse as “living, impaired”.

8. Hiring outside contractors to ride the dead horse.

9. Harnessing several dead horses together to increase the speed.

10. Attempting to mount multiple dead horses in hopes that one of them will spring to life.

11. Providing additional funding and/or training to increase the dead horse’s performance.

12. Doing a productivity study to see if lighter riders would improve the dead horse’s performance.

13. Declaring that as the dead horse does not have to be fed, it is less costly, carries lower overhead, and therefore contributes substantially more to the bottom line of the economy than do some other horses.

14. Re-writing the expected performance requirements for all horses.

15. Promoting the dead horse to a supervisory position
