Now, I'll hoist a double-shot of Cuervo to that! good words. I've said enough about this subject.

"I have to cut a light and run the number. Isn't that what we all have to do anyway?"

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!

A clean tree would be what the first car to leave sees. No disruption by the other car moving.

I think that they need to build a wall all the way down the center of the track to level the playing field. Right now, it is way too unfair.......
