We could pair up and stand at the starting line and flip a coin. That would solve the noise problem.

Unfortunately we have not been attracting enough new young racers.

Let's try a Le Mans Start:

Stage Driver and park Race Car at 60' Line with engine off.

It seems most of good drivers are at least 30+........Heck a lot of the best ones are 50+. This system would let the kids be immediately competitive from first race and handicap everyone as they got older and more experienced.

If anyone is old enough to remember..... their was an Article in Car Craft in Early 70's about Los Angeles Street Racers that talked about me foot racing for a $1000. (I was 300 LB. + then)

Always won......Because I could figure out how exactly how many car lengths I needed. No help from Keds but got paid every time from "Fruit of Loom" due to positioning of trousers at Finish Like...... Contingency Sticker always in full View!

Sure Miss those Days.

Thumbs up Re: Get rid of 1k readings

OK.....Use cubic inch to factory shipping wts. If its blown or has a turbo just DOUBLE the cu. inches used to figure the class. Yeah.....the new Mustangs will run at 662 cu. inch factor and the V-10 DP can run at 512 per cube. Anything goes inside as long as it P&G's correctly so you dont have to tear down as long as it looks stock like in the F.A.S.T. Muscel car races. Stock is almost there already. Sounds about right to me....lol.
