What I remember is it causing a lot of problems for racers who DID deep stage.
A few guys would skip their burnout or do a brief one, then charge up to the line and stage quickly so the d/s er wouldn't have time to get all the way in, instead of just running their own program.
NHRA didn't quite know how to deal with it, so they put up a bogus poll so they would be covered.
I called the poll bogus because ,as I mentioned in my first post here, polling people who probably would never deep stage makes little sense, unless they wanted a specific outcome.
Also included in this "poll" were those who didn't even understand the concept, as illustrated right here in this very thread.
ED, I thought you were done with this thread, a few pages back?

You are spot on Mark.....Joe Mocci
