TruSTART GAINS MOMENTUM WITH ACCUTIME

Larry Hill · 11-10-2018, 09:26 AM

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.

You're posting about different points, not double red lights.

Bruce, I was responding to your point of fan confusion in the sportsman
ranks. That ship sailed long ago. J.R.

What ship are you talking about? So the fans have witnessed this little scheme play out before? Where? You obviously think rule changes will help you win races. You want the fast FS cars to wait 3 or 4 seconds for you while you have a clean tree and a chance at redemption if your opponent has a worse light. Would you like anything else while you're here?

Umm, the "fans" that are watching Stock and SS probably know the "rules" as well or better than we do. The other "fans" are there for the Funny stuff.
If a FS car is waiting "3 or 4 seconds for you", he HAS a "clean tree".
