Stockers....buttons.....check This Out

>> I also heard IHRA was checking for the 2step linelock tie in at the last couple of races and found several that were cheating, including one racer that had just won a divisional.

I KNEW IT! That Myron not only beats women, but he cheats, too! LOL

Didn't IHRA fuss at a couple of guys about having them tied together a couple of years ago?

Too bad Myron footbrakes, because it'd be fun just to get him riled up.

Less electronics/wiring = less opportunity for "manipulation".

[Daran Summerton]

NO Electronics!!! Footbrake only!

[Mark Ruset]

Daran I agree with you 100% no electronics what so ever, foot brake only. It's time we round up the herd and get back in the barn {back to basic stock grass roots}

I agree with you Myron!

If ya going to use the "cheater" flag here, how does that stand up to logic? Nobody's been caught lately and nobody is stupid enough to try cause it's way too easy to detect.

Button users still foot brake.

Two steps will not go away, the horse is out of the corral !!!!!!!

How about the blinder guys, what they're doing is changing the face of full tree racing and there's no complaints?

There's plenty to bitch about, pick a more important subject. Just cause ya can't win rounds doesn't mean the system is broke, this is not a lottery !!!!!!!!!!!

Don't be afraid of the red-light, try harder!

Bernie,
They have been caught in IHRA and were let off with a warning. This year I might add. I don't two-step and have won races. I don't think the cream of the crop is cheating either, but it only takes 1 person that has the balls to do it that changes the outcome of the whole season.

A little birdie told me regardless of the poll buttons are gone! Tech does not have the time to trace wires on 180 stockers at Indy. Myron is not allowed in NHRA Sorry

Personally, I don't. To me, it's more about a style of racing. Again, I think it's important to not blur the lines between Stock and Super Stock.

>> Button users still foot brake.

Great, so they don't need them.

>> Two steps will not go away, the horse is out of the corral !!!!!!!

I don't believe that. You could pencil out two-steps today, and every Stocker in the country could race this weekend with no problem. It's less of a change to racer's programs than when they did away with deep staging. It's my opinion that E-shift should be nipped in the bud now, too.

>> How about the blinder guys, what they're doing is changing the face of full tree racing and there's no complaints?

Two steps are an important part of blinder racing for many racers. Dealing with one marginally affects the other's effectiveness. We don't need Duck Tape on the windshield (there's plenty of other places for Duck Tape!), but there's nothing wrong with a sunvisor, in my opinion. I suck at 'flash' racing, so I haven't even bothered trying it.

>> There's plenty to bitch about, pick a more important subject.

It is an important subject, and there's no reason that it can't be discussed at the same time as thirty other important topics. Let's multi-task.

>> Just cause ya can't win rounds doesn't mean the system is broke

Yeah... I don't think that argument holds up, as there are at least four National and/or World Champions participating in this discussion.

I think the argument should be, "Stock eliminator should (or should not) allow 2-steps because..." Everything else is BS...
