You want to get rid of the breakout inequity? I agree. Lets change that rule. Change it back to running of the national records with no break out. Problem solved.

Sounds like a good idea.But then S/SS would turn into a playground for guys with deeeeeeeep pockets.Think about it.

I have deeeeep pockets. I want the rule changed to suite my agenda. Just like everyone else. Anybody who lobbies for fair for all is an absolute saint or a liar. I've never met a saint. Liars lobby for their perceived advantage under the disguise of fairness. Met them...

Is that so.Maybe you can reach in one of those deep pockets and throw a one year sponsorship to an old on the balls of his ***** racer so I can take my low buck operation on the road this year.
Me and my fellow low buck group get great a great satisfaction out of knocking off a big dollar guy now and then.

Tell me your conception of the "perceived advantage under the disguise of fairness" that would exist under a new red light system wherein BOTH cars had an equal chance to red light, every time at bat. They don't now, you know... IF the first to leave bulbs, the second car suffers NO red light jeopardy like the first car did, and gets a free ride to the next round.

Is THAT not a "perceived advantage?" No, it's a REAL advantage, and needs to be eliminated. Drag racing has enough problems with fairness (AHFS; HP Factors:Politics: Shall I go on???) and this is one that's been around for 48 years and is an easy fix, now.

Let's fix it!
