Bill Dedman you have basically taken up the cause that was once championed by Steve Taylor......I used to think like a lot of guys and that was leave well enough alone on this issue.....but I agree it should be changed to WORST redlight, not first.....In all the years I've raced I can't really recall a race where we both redlit.....and I was the faster car in many races and benefitted from opponents redlights. It usually distracted me and I was late, not red.......Fair is fair and it makes sense. I don't race a Stocker anymore so my opinon doesn't count though...same as yours...LOL

I raced Aaron (RIP) two races in a row in 2005(?) at the Arizona Nationals followed by the D7-1 the following weekend. Both times I was the faster car. Both times he red lit first, I red lit second. His red light by a little, mine by a lot. The distraction of an opponents red light sometimes has the opposite affect on my as I seem to side step the clutch at that point. Then again, a red light was maybe in my cards mo matter what the other lane did; we'll never know. I know this, Aaron was mad the first time and furious the second time!
