Only time I really wait is in a heads-up and I have had time that they wanted both of us to wight and fuel ck.
Normal run I don’t stop As I know most of the racer are not near the min at most time when it a dial in race. But that being said I have had a few that had waited and it dose not bother me one bit as it is there part of the run.

Your win light didn’t go on
So proceed to load up and go home
If it’s not a heads-up way bother
I hate when someone sits by the scale hope to get a freebie
I make sure to disappoint that person and go over the scale.

hahaha, I think I made the first turn off every time down the track XD. Yeah I was probably knee deep in a bologna sandwich by then! Good run, next time don't forget I'm slow and that you gotta block!

Back in the day at a IHRA div race after a heads up race [got beat] went over to the scales to congratulate the guy [ I was pitted next to the scales] the guy at the scale told me I was ten lb lite, not my car. Went to the tower and they told me the scale was old so I still lost after I weighted my car that was ok.
