Seattle in the early eighties was .5 pro light with no deep staging but you had to roll in some.The best I could cut with a 12 second car averaged about .620. You need to have the front end tight with no lift, the car has to go straight ahead immediately. Most cars will wind up with as small a front tires as possible, 13 " is legal, they'll be there. The lightest cars will dominate some combinations will become extinct when in comes to dial in racing and forget about stick shifts, there's a reason there are virtually none in .90 classes.But for heads up runs where both cars are similiar and no dial ins it might be O.K.

What exactly is this instant green supposed to accomplish, If your blocking it's instant yellow now. Just pick a bulb and leave on it ?

I could see an experienced blinder driver, that is already tough, being just as tough at night now. There would be no amber light bleed over. The guys not doing this would be even further behind, ie. the learning curve to get your car moving as quick as possible. I agree, that the lighter cars will have an advantage as well.
Ernie Neal SS 354 PS; I kinda liked the idea at first until I thought about the outcome |

Great idea Don! It adds excitement. I'm disappointed Comp doesn't have it either. Since handicap racing is necessary to promote car counts, we must highlight headsup runs to keep the thrill alive for S/SS. 😎
