How long has this rule been in effect?

As it turns out this update on the entire staging lane process was brought up and discussed at length during our last SRAC "Super class" meeting a couple of weeks ago. The conversation was initiated from recent events in multiple divisions. The emphasis from the SRAC was to provide more clarity of the "race procedures" rules around staging lanes, etc., (which do apparently exist) but few of the racers actually know of the details of them (and NHRA had opted not to wholesale publish them). The message was that if you want us to adhere to them, and follow them, then they should be shared.

Hats off to NHRA in this case for listening that they had an issue and addressing it.

Of course the specific lane choice items being discussed here for S/SS was not discussed in our "super class" meeting but apparently it was flushed out when the other items were communicated. There's still gaps in the procedure for the Supers, but it's a whole lot clearer than it was.
