Re: Rules for staging?
Here is another staging scenario that happened to a friend of mine at a bracket race.I think I am explaining this right......
Driver A lights the pre-stage.Driver B lights the pre-stage.Driver A stages.Driver B notices that his dial-in is NOT correct.He doesn't stage.Autostart takes over,redlight for Driver B.Driver A makes the pass down track. Driver B goes to the tower and says he wants a rerun and that the dial-in wasn't correct,that is why he didn't stage.Driver A says that he never should have pre-staged if the dial-in was not correct. Who is right? What should have happened? Rerun or loss for Driver B? Last edited by 442OLDS; 09-07-2009 at 09:19 PM. |

Re: Rules for staging?
I agree, you should always check the dial before lighting the 1rst bulb. If you already have the pre stage bulb lit, and then notice the dial is wrong, I would back out right away, but the starter may or may not allow that. My opinion is, you light the first bulb, you "bought" the dial.

Once you prestage you own it.
