What happened 10-15-20 years ago has nothing to do with what happens now, it's called EVOLUTION, I believe the opposite would put us back in the stone age, we'll continue to use technology whether YOU like it or not !!! Keep up or light your fires with a flint.
Bernie,

Tim has been around longer than you may think, and as much as you think that the 2-steps do not make a difference... they do. You may have been around for a long time, but in the days of the incandescent bulbs it was much easier to anticipate the bulb than it is nowadays. I know this because when I was in junior dragsters I used this to my advantage. You could watch the different stages of the bulb and react on on a particular spot within one bulb, but the LED's do not allow this, and in juniors my avg reaction time was around .020.

Take the 2-step out of your car and see how consistent you are one weekend.

I won a lot of cash in my street truck the last year of incandescent bulbs, but it took me until this year to adjust.

Whether or not stock allows it, I will use the stock 2-step on our stick car. And it makes a BIG difference in the light. The big names will still win, but you will see a much smaller difference in the MOV.
