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. 😎

.400 Pro Tree would get my vote! It can even be handicapped for different ET cars. NMRA did this back in the 90’s

Besides the fact that this is one of the silliest threads I've ever seen, IF
it had to be done, it would need to be a .500 Pro Tree to allow for all cars to have a somewhat even chance. J.R. |

ran instant green DYO a couple weeks ago , 0.400 tree here in Oz for all racing
2 things I see , 1 it takes delay box out of the equation . We were mixed box/no box 2 lighter / faster cars have a bigger advantage . Hard to get my near 3800 lb Satellite going from 2000 when footbraking . Pro tree DYO is a bit better with 1 warning light ![]() Tex |

Less red lights for certain, but a whole lot more crap lights as well. Just seems like a terrible idea to even consider. The tire companies would likely be stocking up on 22-24" tall front tires if this ever happened. Hopefuly this is just "silly season"/Christmas hang over talk.

Guys, class racing has a TON of problems that need addressed, the tree isn't one of them.
