The point is, as I and Evan Smith stated, the spread while once warranted, is no longer neccessary. Yes, a stick car will and should MPH faster. In the end, if adjusted, nothing changes except qualifying order. And since qualifying order is based on ET and not MPH, what's the big deal?

And I should also clarify my first post on this subject. I believe electromagnetic clutch pedal releases should only be allowed in classes which allow a trans-brake. Specifically, I am referring to Superstock.
