2011 Stock/Super Stock Rule Changes

Ed (F.), of course you don't want to answer "any more questions" because you can't.

You never did answer what is fair about a rule that can remove the red light jeopardy from the second car to leave (IF the first car redlights), and why such a lopsided rule should stay, since it's so easy to fix..... and if you can't answer that, then you have no argument.

Do you think that because you run a class car and I run a bracket car, your opinion is any more valid than mine? It's not. The reason it's not is that the procedures involved in staging, and starting a Stock and/or Bracket race, and the resultant red light system vagaries are IDENTICAL.

So, now, tell me how my opinion should carry any less weight than yours?

At least, Ed Wright pointed out a reason for this lopsided situation; he thinks it offsets the "clean tree" that sometimes, the slower car gets. How about when two cars race, and the difference in their dial-ins is just a few hundredths of a second? Where's the "clean tree", then?

It doesn't exist, in that case, but the first redlight rule stays....

Try again, Mr. Wright... that one only works part of the time.
