The rule is fine as-is, as it can level out the non-clean tree racer in rare instances. This Tru-start in MY opinion is one baby step towards 'everyone gets a trophy'
The only situation Tru start makes sense to me is a delay box class with crosstalk on, but that is another conversation.

Non clean tree doesn't hold water with me. At brackets races I pretty much spot all cars and have not seen the case in not having a clean tree. The focus is on the tree, then keep car straight as possible , then after in drive I start looking for opponent . If your watching slow car leave and interfere with your focus I can only suggest more bracket races, team races,s/ss combos and at the big div and nats you can hopefully go more rounds.
