I have had a few phone calls since I posted this yesterday,,,,,,, I am Against DELAY boxes. I'm just know how the system is....... I think if you let delay boxes go just look at the can of worms that is opening (Remember the MATTY BOX) If NHRA cant police delay boxes how are they going to police all the thing that are out there if they don't know what they are looking for anyway.... Think about this,,, how many S/S and COMP racers have Never used a delay box ,,,some haven't ever turned loose of a trans brake... All of the racers who have used delay boxes will get better while the rest is learning. I wish we would do away with all the Buttons, two steps, air shifters, electric shifters and just go back to Racing like it is suppose to be ( BUT WILL NEVER HAPPEN ) Again this is just my 2 cents worth..............
