I agree, and think it was a good move. Fewer games.

I leave first most of the time and could really care less if the rule is changed but i will say I think it's a good idea. Every time one of these debates came up I would wonder if the right person would introduce something like this would it be possible. I think it's an interesting idea and has the right person backing it.

I like it....long overdue....

For everybody but the stick guys.......

I have rolled into the pre-stage first and looked down at my gauges and when I looked up the stick car had both lights lit.......

Now I let the stick car light his pre-stage and slow everything down...

I am not the brightest bulb but I can learn....

I don't think any stick guy is doing this intentionally but you realize it takes more time for us to go in. In order to not hold up the guy in the other lane, I'm pretty much going to start the procedure as soon as both cars are prestaged. I'm trying to be a good guy, not trying to mess up the guy in the other lane.

I also thought the idea of instant green was pretty comical. If we go to instant green, you can kiss any stick car goodbye. I'm going to build a SS/AM car with a trans brake, pretty safe bet that guy is going to win every time.

Would you like to tell Peter Biondo, Kyle Seipel and, Bob Brockmeyer your feelings about that,? I'm sure they'd be very interested in your thoughts on the subject..

What is the violation there? You prestaged first, so the only Courtesy Staging violation would be for you to stage before he is prestaged.

I will be ok with this if fast cars that spin there tires get a rerun.... if I lose my gimme round so do slow cars

Re: TruSTART looks to level the playing field.
 

You should try hooking a "slow" car with WAAAAY too much gear and converter sometime. At least a "fast" car will somewhat recover. I won't even get into how much a "slow" car swings with weather and wind changes.
