Re: What would your Div director do ?
Like a previous poster stated. They fixed tree before next pair ran. Why? In DD mind it wasnt a problem so it should have stayed broke with 1 bulb missing.

Re: What would your Div director do ?
US Nationals a few years ago.. Had to race Mickey Walter and my middle bulb did not come on.. It was a rerun. Mickey won the first race and I won the second race. Steven Hall was spotting for me and Rick Stewart removed the bulb, signed it, handed to Steven and I have it.
Any tree malfunction should and always should require a rerun. I have also been on the losing side as I raced Speedy Emmons at Baton Rouge and we had a tree problem. Starter said that I Red Lighted and gave win to Speedy. I dailed a 11.62 [1984 G/SA} and scoreboard showed 11.32. Have a VCR tape that showed to "GREEN" lites. Howard Stanfield was in tower fighting for me and Harvry Emmons was at scales also fighting.. Walter the starter called it and it was offical. Everyone this was the "FINALS" My 2 cents "RERUN"

Re: What would your Div director do ?
IHRA rule book page 113 - re-runs
If any "single" amber bulb is burned out on the competitor's side of the tree the race will be re-run. Looks like something else NHRA will need to steal from IHRA ...lol |

And heck,.... I've been putting grits and grease on the table by running drag races for the last 35 years and haven't done anything right yet. Why should I start now? You know what they say,..... those than can,..do,... those that can't become drag strip operators. |
