Re: Super Gas Burndown
 

Well....here's my 3 cents worth....because I don't think there is enough responses to this just yet...

In my opinion...T-Stop & Bracket racing in general has tightened up a lot in the last several years. I think it's great to try anything legal to one-up the next guy. Whether it's the way you stage...how you work your T-Stop...or how you play the top end. Games are games...how is playing staging games any different than top end games? One might think CBS setting up fast and dumping to a .90 is playing games? Me...I think anything that turn's on the W is great. If someone's going to get upset because I staged weird or because they believe I played games with them....and it would 'cause them to not want to be friends with me...I'm not sure they need to be a friend of mine anyway. You should never let what happens on the track affect what happens in the pits after a race. I know some of us are not real good at that...but it's true. If we all want to be friends...let say you have to pre-stage in a certain amount of time, stage in a certain amount after that, we all have to have the same engine and car to make performace close, throttle stops have to be turned on and off in certain parameters, and you're not allowed to lift or dump at the end. Then we can all be friends at the end of a nice sunny day and eat hot dogs together...and maybe some ice cream after that. C'mon...let the games begin...games in the burnout, games during staging, and games all the way down! I'm all for any advantage I can get! Only one person I won't play games with..and that's my wife...I have to live with her all week!

Enjoy the winter...and take some time to create new tricks and games!

Scotty. Conrats on a great season!
I have been setting back reading all of this trying to decide on how I personaly feel about it. Myself, I play no games, I have screwed up a few times and double bulbed someone, but I always apologized to my opponent afterwards because I felt like a rookie, (usually I lost anyway). But that is just me.
I have to agree with you about the whole deal, The pros try everything the can to get any kind of a slight edge, sometimes it works for you and sometimes not.
The bottom line..( not to sound like Force). I will do my deal, if you beat me with a staging tactic that throws me off, then, you win, I loose.


Its going to be a long winter, Things could be worse... Everyone please keep Linn Bebout and his family in your hearts,
