Went through this with deep staging a few years ago. (note: I have never deep staged, ever) It ain't goin to happen this way. Get the track owners on board (they are Compulink customers) you might have a fighting chance. If you can get enough tracks "across the country" to adopt the idea then NHRA will have to consider it. You still may never see it at a national or divisional until it proven at the bracket racing level.
Ohh, by the way what happened to deep staging. You can but you're on you're own. No holding the tree any more.

I deep stage all the time with my bracket car because it will not leave like a race car, I drive it to and from the track and it gets 25 mpg. (01 Corvette) The only thing about deep staging is that the car is positioned differently on the starting line. What would happen if they took the prestage light away, most people would never find the starting line. "Pre"stage means before you are staged, and that is it. The problem with the people thinking that deep staging is not right is because that is what they were taught. You don't have to wait for me or any of my friends to deep stage, we are usually in before you have even done your burnout.
