Default Re: worst red light debate, again!

Forget the worst red light, let's allow deep staging. What a FARCE to make THAT illegal. Guess they just didn't want slow cars to have a shot. It would be tough enough to deep stage being the slow car with courtesy staging and autostart, isn't that enough of a disadvantage to allow it?

I run a slow classed Stocker and shallow stage as much as the rest do,and leave on the bottom light. I`ve never had a problem hitting the tree good consistantly,and I`ve never needed to deep stage it. That`s a moot point too.

I stage dead shallow and leave on the bottom bulb too. I also like looking at a clean tree. To me, that is my advantage to leaving first and taking the chance of being the first to go red.
Now why can't we talk about something like the shameful purses we have to run for. If we're going to discuss something that doesn't have a snowballs chance in hell of happening anyway why couldn't it be the purse?

Thanks a lot Claude.You had to crank him up again.Quack,quack,quack,quack,quack,quack.
I also stage shallow and have no problem hitting the tree.That's with 60's in the 1.74-1.80 range.
Oh and what Billy said.

Bill, approaching NHRA as I mentioned and whining on an Internet message board are two different things. Going on & on about it here does nothing. More people wanted cars weighed with the drivers than want this changed. Remember the poll done here? Most racers do not want or care about this. Get over it. Not going to happen. I would like to take long showers with Pamela Anderson too. That ain't gonna happen either.

It probably won't occur because she has no desire to engage in sapphic activity with the likes of you.

If you think that a poll taken about ANYTHING on this BB has any validity at all, you're dreaming, or know nothing at all about statistical measurement.

What happened on the "weigh the drivers with the cars" issue was that Don Nicholson and a group of BIG Pro Stock drivers applied some leverage tp NHRA officials and got them to see things their way. Had nothing to do with popular opinion or any kind of poll...

[QUOTE=Ed Wright;254743 "Most racers do not want or care about this. "]QUOTE

How many racers who run Stock and Super Stock have you interviewed aboit this??? Or, is this based on your worthless poll?

Please answer the question. I want to know where this opinion of yours comes from.
