There are no requirements for names, no evidence of participation in a S/SS, nothing. As I stated, a post could be made by a 5 year old.
The forum here invites and accepts non racers. That is clear, that is acceptable to most including myself. However, based on the lack of credentials of say the 5 year old, and maybe an entire group of 5 year olds, should that group impact what actual racers must adhere too?
They have no skin in the game. Rebel rouser's sometimes chide just for the fun of it. Bill Dedman has already commented that he will never again participate in S/SS racing. Obviously he has no skin in this game and stands to gain nothing one way or the other. The fact he hopes this issue will transcend into his bracket class has no bearing on S/SS racing for the red light rule (whatever it may be) would not necessarily be applied to all forms of drag racing.
I'm wondering if Bill thought it was unfair that deep staging was once allowed? Or maybe he believes the disallowing of deep staging is unfair?
Please Jeff.Don't wind him up again.
