New blocks you say... Yeah buddy! And valve springs too? Xmas is early! Now if we can get the steel dart head approved?
On the red light rule, you choked first you are toast.
Looks like NHRA is doing time managment also. 5 sec burnout, Wonder if that comes from the air quality folks... kidding...

I bet it's for the same reason I heard they went from a 5 bulb tree to a 3 bulb. To save time! It adds up over hundreds of runs. "Time is money".

....or maybe the Pro cars hook too hard when the sportsman lay down too much of their rubber compounds.:p

Well we know it's not for track prep or anything for the sportsman racer. Next thing will be a minimum dial... Taking too long to get to the stripe!

Until I killed my first set of slicks on the DP in less than 25 runs I used to enjoy doing those soul cleanings long drawn out burnouts that take so long the the guy in the water box shakes his head in disgust..and like Ed you can have a snack and brush your teeth too..That and the lack of a side mirror on the DP made for a challenge.......its a good way to get your water temp up to snuff though....

Now I do the weenie burnout, feels kind of weird, but I may visit the lucky Hoosier trailer less often!

I will try to post my 70 challengers last run of the year video from last season. Now that was a righteous burnout.....

Then I presume, if you "choke first" at the finnish line, you are toast there as well?

If not, why not?

Jerry,
I think that scenario falls under the current "First or Worst" heading. With 2 red lites not being the worst. The first car going out of bounds of it's assigned lane being the worst.
What happens if the guy in the left lane (faster car) looses it and rolls over into your lane and you swerve into his lane to avoid a crash? Who is out, who is in and does your run count?

Trick question the slower car would have left first so he would be ahead of the wreck. But in your senario I would think the slow car would get the win as he was making a evasive move.
