How about this: "This lopsided rule has been screwing the first car to leave for 48 years; isn't it time we FIXED the problem, since we now CAN?"

I didn't see anything worded like THAT in the poll.

That is the flip side of
"WTF Let's concentrate on the REAL problems;" implying very strongly, that this existing situation is NOT a REAL PROBLEM.


It's a HUGE problem, mainly, because it's so unnecessary.

My Jouralism professor in college spent a whole week on semantics, and how they skew the outcome of so-called "POLLS." Your poll is a texbook case in "leading the respondent."


What does my Bracket car have to do with this, anyway? They won't fix the problem at the local track until it gets fixed in NHRA racing.

If you don't want non Class-Racer folks responding (voting) on your poll. post it on the board that is for Class Racers only. This board is for everyone.... remember?
