Bob if you want to race a quick P/SA relative to your index, that's fine. I think a slow A/SA relative to his index should benefit from your red light by leaving last. Simple.

It's the slow takeover of the shoe polish regime! Unfortunately, it's gonna happen. Too many trophies that have been presented towards participation!

I just don't see what tru-Start has to do with the ruination of Stock and SS! I think that the loosening of all of the under hood rules have already done that!

It just seems like common sense that if the first to redlight loses then the first to break out should lose too.

It does make sense when comparing it to all the bracket racer rules. When stock and ss were first created, it was a performance based category, and people built cars to leave second because of the first chance of someone making a mistake. It's just another "let's make it fair" change. People build cars because of the way the rules are written.
Like I said, it's going to happen, whether I, or anyone else wants it to. Just frustrated with constant changes for the "bracket racer." Can we make all weight breaks 1 pound?

All that we've been doing for years is "bracket racing".
I'm OK with 1 pound weight breaks if that makes you feel better but we'll still be "bracket racing".

I'll bet we have more heads up racing with one pound breaks! That's all I ask for when it comes to class racing. The shoe polish regime can't duck and hide as easily from the possibilty of more heads up races this way. Like I said, it's going to happen whether you or I like it or not.

Anybody else remember when NHRA let the Divisions decide by vote if electronics would be legal to use in bracket classes? All were in favor except Div. #1. Sure wasn't a level playing field when meeting up with Div. #3 guys. I think it was like two years before they changed it to match.
