Not this BS again. When I ran the gremlin I was in my sixties. Deep was allowed when I started. Didn't like it when it was banned but I worked at it and I think I did a fairly good job at leaving on a dead shallow stage. My car's 60' times were bttween 1.75 and 1.79 usually. If you can't cut a light shallow then you need a faster leaving car ($$$) or taking up curling for a sport.
Ask Jody if not going deep has hurt his ability to compete.
