It's O V E R. Can't get any more logical than that.
You think that's a reason not to change it?

That's the status quo; not a reason at all.

What's your opinion of a reason not to change it? When does the other car get HIS chance to red light in this race? Don't you think conditions should be the same for both cars?

I think you guys will need some of these items if you want to attempt to repair anything involving NHRA.

Have you ever noticed how, when Ed F. cannot answer the question at hand, his reaction is to change the subject and distract the reader by attacking the poster of the thread, bringing up issues that have no bearing on the subject matter?

That's his M.O., and it never changes; he thinks if he can discredit the credibility of the person who asked the question, maybe nobody will notice that he had NO ANSWER for the question that was asked.

That's the equivalent of what they used to call "yellow journalism," but it's his only line of defense for having no answer for the question.

I'm probably not tellling you anything you didn't already know... just thought it was worth mentioning.

OK F me, one last time. You want opinion or logic? Reason or fact? You keep changing your demands.

My reason to not change it? I don't feel it's broken.
Fact? It's a current rule that we must abide by.
Logic? Once the first car red lights the race is over.
Opinion? It is the same for both cars. Some times you are first to leave, giving you the chance to eliminate your self. Some times you are second to leave, giving you the chance to win be your opponents red light.

You asked for an opinion of a reason, don't know what that means. These are the facts/reasons/opinions/logic AS I SEE IT. There is zero chance you will change my mind. You keep asking for a reason, indicating that if one is given you may change yours. I don't care one way or the other what you want, nor am I interested in changing your mind. You asked, I answered. I speak for myself, and don't care who is on the band wagon with me.

And Ed, very democratic of you to ask for a hand out for you to go racing.
