I truly do not care which way it goes. I have to cut a light and run the number. Isn't that what we all have to do anyway? Being a faster car is not the ultimate advantage. In 2016, I think I left first 1 time. Being the second to leave takes serious concentration because of the slower car moving first. Track prep, wind, lanes, etc all have an effect on faster and slower cars.

Having grown up in this sport, we should be more concerned with the direction NHRA is going. Reduced car counts, less tech, terrible division directors, sub-par tracks, and so on should be what we are concerned about. Not whether or not Tru-Start is in effect or not. The same guys that win now, will win even if Tru-Start is in effect. Mainly because those guys are working on becoming better drivers year in and year out. Not asking for rules to be changed to accommodate their personal agenda.

Just my .02

No, and that's the the point. Cutting a light and running the number are two fundamentals that every person involved in a handicapped race should be subjected to.

First car has a clean tree and has to go green. Am I missing something? If you leave first and go green, you have done your job. Isn't that what we should be striving for in racing? Doing our job and not requesting the rules to be changed? It has been this way since the beginning and seems to get liberalized more and more every year.

And yes Billy - a toast of Cuervo to you also!

Michael: You are not missing a thing. It really is that simple. Silver Patron for me. SALUTE
