Stage Lock

There are four sensors on the starting line. Prestage, stage lock, stage, and over stage or guard beam

Back in the '80s, the tiny front tires of my Pro ET rotary Mazda sometimes wouldn't light the pre-stage and stage lights at the same time. Probably a set-up issue with the photocells, but it used to piss me off- I would stage as shallow as I could, and would get called on the "no deep-stage" rule. I would have to back out and re-stage, to demonstrate that it was their equipment, and not my car.
