When you think about it: All the catagories that run a Pro Tree, TF,FC,PS, SG, etc. already have the TruStart, the worst redlight is the loser. Been that way for years. Seems simple enough to utilize it across the board.

But, the worst redlight is also the first to redlight in all of those catagories

Go to search window and type in truestart. You will see what everyone thought back in 2016. It ended up being quite even with opinions

The slow car's lite should not change from green on the hit to Red after the faster car leaves. Could the tree be set so no lite, Red or Green, is shown until second car launches?

I'm not for True Start. What happens on identical red lites? Rerun, first lite looses, does the last light loose, or is the "program" set up so left lane always wins if tied at the seventh place to the right of decimal point?

Seems like a great way to slowdown a race program and cause confusion for the fans. The last thing nhra wants or needs.

We don't confuse the fans. When a FS/AA car Runs a AAF/S and the FS/AA car runs 8.39 on a 8.41 dial under, with an index of 9.40, but wins because the AAF/S went 13.47 on a 13.50 index and didn't dial under.
And then we are going to review the HP of the FS/AA car for going more than a second under, no, but wait, it was mine shaft, so no review. The average fan has a handle on what we do, right? J.R.

What on Earth are you talking about???

There is absolutely no impact to the flow of the race program.

It is laughable to think that any sportsman drag racing policy would be dictated by impact to the fans!

Timing system goes past 3 decimal places. Just like now. See Vegas Divisional Round 5 SG. Both lanes with -.005 reaction times. Winner and loser determined immediately. Was watching on D3TV.

So how far to the right of the decimal point will it go before it stops and declairs a winner, or will it be Pi?
