Tru-start poll for DIv 1

[Coleydog]

It now is a bracket race for maybe 90% of the time, if you want "class racing" run off the national records like before.

Tru Start seems logical, based on worst, not first, breakout. It seems like it would be an equitable change that probably should have happened long ago.

Gotta agree with you there Todd. Plus, the faster car doesn't always win........ Plenty of people can't hit the tree to save their lives......

If you don't want a possible heads up race, then stay out of Stock, Super Stock and Comp!

How did that work? Was every race basically a heads-up race with no breakout? Was your dial based-off the National Record for your class at that time? Curious as to how it worked back then.

I remember in 1974-75 you ran off the National record with a tenth under breakout was allowed.
It was handicap racing, with the handicaps coming from the National record in your class

I think the index system came out in 1977 & if your car was faster than your given index
you were allowed to dial quicker, but not sure if you can dial different each round.
Don't think you were.
