I am not the guy that moves next to a dragstrip and complains about the noise either. In other words, when I read the rulebook and accepted this as the venue that I would be competing in, I don’t expect the rules to be changed to meet my personal needs. I’m glad to get away from flag starters and the 5 bulb tree. I do like the reaction timers, just so I can tell how good or bad I was. I think we are good with the way it is.

I don’t have anything good to say about the truestart system. I’m pleased someone created it, for their benefit. I feel that if NHRA wanted it they would have had it created.

I personally don’t feel your truestart pain.

Asking to get parts on my car legal to go faster is a personal benefit. Asking 25 HP off my car only is a personal benefit. True start makes every one from trying to not red light. Now it's just the slow car that have to worry. Sounds like the current way is a personal benefit for the faster of 2 cars.
