Buster would have started the race. They didn't the autostart when Buster was there they had a starter that knew what he was doing.

Ed,

Too bad in both situations.

This is really pretty simple. Look at the bottom of the timeslip. If it said "Both drivers staged at starter go", you know what happened.

You know it !
I keep all those time slips as a reminder of which starters don't know how to do their job.

He will never admit if it was his fault! I'm sure NHRA will announce it was a "computer glitch."

Why do they need a starter to flip a switch? Computer can recognize when both cars are staged and then turn on count down. Do away with the possibility of human error altogether.
