Headsup Stk Elim Round Breakout?

Bill - you are correct - it's a "heads-up start" (both get the green at the same time) but not a "heads-up race" (breakout rules still apply). Otherwise, the quicker car would just match the slower car's dial and win every time.

Thanks for the good info, guys.

Is it just me (old age), or is this stuff more complicated than it was back when we used flagmen to start races???? LOL!!!

I could have taken my time - all the heads-up races in the Gainesville ND Stock results were decided on red lights and there weren't any in SS. Oh, well, it's fixed.
