So, until I see one of these certain racers drive a clutch car that LEAVES WITH A PEDAL, and see .001 - .009 lights on a regular basis, I say ditch buttons on automatic cars only, letting the stick racers keep 2 and 3 step launch controls.

And jut who are these Div. 1 racers who are cheating?It
always seems that Div. 1 hastheso called cheaters,no other div. Where were the infamous Dirty Dozen from?How about a certain Div. 7 racer who's gone under under the radar at Indy for pistons and short block?Yeah only those round going Div. and Nat'l. champions from Div. 1 are cheaters.Right Ed O????????????????
