I personally do not think that putting blinders on the last two lights will help anyone win races. I have never used a blinder and probably wont ( never say never), however, a lot of people do and are successful with them. As far as the "red light" rule it works fine like it is, like someone said, " I never complain about losing when I redlight". We have a great system that has worked for many years and they have made effective changes like going from five ambers to three and giving us reaction times, which they used to not do. Usually if someone is struggling with reaction times its not the trees fault. I do agree that a background of some sort would be helpful if the sunlight is facing you, at least large enough to cover the back of the tree, allowing you to get a good look at all of the ambers without the sun interfering.
