Lots of professional sports have seen the problem and introduced clocks of some sort. If the same thing were introduced to staging (with different standards for classes that need more time and those who don't) there would be plenty of unused time to run even a very large field of juniors.

I realize that the racers have developed a process but imo because of monkey see, monkey do. A large part of their routine serves no real purpose but "the fast guys do it". And yes, even the class I spent most time in - Pro Stock. There is no need for that wheelie bar check and adjustment on the line. I'm expecting micrometers to start getting used.
You mean I don't need 45 guys at the line, backing me up, slapping the car, giving thumbs up for no apparent reason....oh wait, that's no prep...lol
