Is the burnout time new in the rulebook?
Super
Stock, Stock, Super Gas, and Super Street drivers may not cross the starting line on
any burnout; stationary burnout limit is five seconds.
I have been restraining myself, trying to cut back, but 5 seconds seems pretty short. Burnouts are part of the fun and the "show" for the fans....

Eric I go 106 or 107 mph on a good day, in race mode. I'm running cars that go over 160 mph. You can't believe how fast they go by me. I learned lifting is not an option I just stab the brake a bit.
At the 1000' mark they look like a fly turd on my mirror.
PS I'm not really gripping here just kidding. They can not judge how quick they are closing on me. If they lift when they catch me it's to late.
