Re: Get rid of 1k readings
 
I remember those days Ed. A hand written time slip with ET,MPH and with R/T`s during time trials only. During elims,no R/T`s until the final. A lot of racers today wouldn`t know how to dial a car with that little info in the middle of elims. Oh yeah,no weather station/ET predictors either. Maybe a cheap temp gauge in the pits was all you had. Was a lot more simple back then.

I'm with Dan! I am a so-called average racer/driver and if my odds of winning go from say 15% to 10% because of this change go for it!!!

I personally think my odds would increase not decrease! IMO.

Yes, let's eliminate ET and MPH as well.

Way to go Toby.Let's get rid of the cars too while were at it.How many of you guys could physically run a 1/4 mile?
I'm definitely past that point in time.

I think we should all leave the race cars at home and go to the track with lawn chairs and beer. This whole idea is F***ING stupid.

SERIOUSLY!!! How much more enjoyable it would be to just put an et and mph in the book. Talk about making life easier for those of us with OCD. Please, take the gun out of my hand...LOL...

I still think it's a good idea.

Maybe China could provided us one for under 4K . That would be less than a good racing transmission or a set of "Stocker" cylinder heads.
Of course, you'd have to replace BOT BOY every two years...for safety of course.

Now, that would be fair.
Thats already been done, he was built in an east coast warehouse by a man named Sam. Goes by the name Peter.
