Best idea I've heard in a while. Maybe 1/8 th mile times will be next.

Many racers want to run late so as to see how the others are qualifying and because of that, it takes way to long to get them into the lanes.

They started earlier than scheduled the other week. Super Stock was already going down the track when I pulled in the gate. I still got to the lanes before several guys!

Give only 60', 1/8 and 1/4 mile times.
This could slow a lot of sandbagging. They could still short shift, back up timing, etc.

Art - Take that one step further. Give only ET, MPH, Win or Lose. Like the old days!

Then close the lanes. Do that a couple times and they will be there on time, I promise.
I guess I missed the point of this...............Who cares what the other guy does or where he qualifies? Why is this such a big deal? If you go five O and run on your dial, I am pretty sure you will win. Its all about the math so why the drama??
