Why?

Just saying it doesn't make it so...
That I contend that I don't care either way, and that I don't think NHRA is going to pay somebody to re-write the software? Or that I think complaining on an internet message board is not going to make NHRA & IHRA think "Dang! We need to spend some money to make these FEW guys happy!"? Of which do you want proof?

It's my OPINION that them having software re-written, distributing it to all member tracks, and changing a rule to make a few not feel slighted would amount to a handout. You want proof that is my OPINION?

Bill, talking to you is like talking to a wall. You seem to have trouble understanding what you read.

Now, why don't you throw up about 50 more paragraphs of your tired-azzed questions you want answered.

" IF " The rule was changed ,i would go by the rule.....It is not the rule now and i go by the rules we have now...Why would i speak to the race director if that was the rule.
My opinion was i rather leave it alone and still is......

Don't know how many i lost that way....(even before reaction times existed)
He has his chance to lose when i don't go red...
Pressure is on him then not me, I already won the red lite fight when i went green.....
"IF " the rule changed ,i would respect the rule ,
but as i said earlier , I would not vote for it....My opinion and stickin to it********

I gotta a idea ,,,,,,Let's just keep re-running til both drivers go GREEN......

This, from a guy who has steadfastly refused to answer every question about procedural red light rules I have asked for the last several weeks. You usually just act like you didn't SEE the question, but this time you failed to answer the quetion I asked, and instead, answered one I didn't ask.

A handout, regarding whom you think benefits ("slow cars?") as to the rules change, because NHRA made the change has NOTHING to do with a rules-oriented "handout" that might give an advantage to one group, or another.

This rule change would not benefit ANY ONE GROUP, but instead would benefit EVERYONE by placing EVERY COMPETITOR under EQUAL red light jeopardy, something that doesn't exist, now... a fact you don't seem to want to talk about, and one I'm not at all sure you understand.

Don't you think that the goal of protocol/rules would be to have rules that apply to EVERYONE RACING?

I think that's a "no brainer." The teardown barn has ONE SET of measuring tools to ensure that a 4" bore on one car is the same size as a 4" bore on every other car.

But you think it's perfectly OK to have ONE SET of red light rules for first-to-leave cars and a different set for second-to-leave cars. Full red light jeopardy for the first-to-leave car, but NO red light jeopardy, for the second-to-leave car, if the first car "bulbs."
It's unnecessary and unfair. Time to change it.

If you can't understand THAT, then I have nothing more to say to you.

Jim,do yourself a favor and stop trying to analyze my thought process and go practice your starting line techniques so that this red light rule won't play so much on your mind.
Bill,your a pathetic old has been.Now you criticize my spelling.Get a f*cking life .

Well I guess you told me! Maybe you should go to work for Scotty and teach racers how to win rounds Ed. Oh, but wait, don't you think you should actually win a few rounds yourself first? Maybe even attend a race? Yours' and Ed Wright's repetitive non intelligent posts prove the point that you can't debate a moron. I should have known better than to try. My bad! People reading this thread should ask themselves why someone who has stated several times that they "do not care either way about this rule" has gone so viral and nasty and personal about it? Maybe you should have just voiced your opinion and moved on like others have done? Well my job here is done. I'm going to go hit the simulator and practice my starting line techniques because I actually DO race some. You Ed's just keep posting and proving who smart you are, or not. Jim

Oh, and no charge for the psychoanalysis!

You had better practice.Must suck being a regular contributor to the round winners,when yo race.
Like I said before,I've had ay least a 6 grade,mostly an 8 in the 11 years I've run Stock.And I've had a 2 digit number here in Div.1.with a slow car. and a 2 digit # the year I ran IHRA (2007).
So go back to practicing,you need it.
Your physcoanataletic skills need a lot of work too.
Come on up here and race Div 1.Opps I forgot Perrone is up here.

Terry,
Something keeps bringing you back here. Maybe you're expecting to see intelligent thought processes ...Maybe that's expecting too much...Either way, I know it's the highlight of MY day. I hope it goes on in perpetuity ...
