Nothing says you have to run up and stage, make them wait.
Curtesy staging is enforced at this particular drag strip, so if I'd waited a few more moments, the starter would have intervened and had the dragster back up and stage again. I saw an opportunity to take advantage of the situation and did so.

For all of the lady's who race these classes, I use the term "Man card" metaphorically.

The only times I?ve ever had problems with where I was in the beams or in the groove was when there were people trying to ?help? At the starting line. No thanks?. I?m capable. Thanks.
Answer: it takes one person. The driver.
