Like Gregg and Mike I thought they removed deep staging and turning on both light then backing out. I think it use to mess up the staging timer. Every time I see it now I question why the same folks do it on a normal routine and are allowed. Usually I have to wait to make sure my dial is correct before I pre-stage as the pair in front are still running their race. I try not have a senior moment by mistake. Many years ago we did a couple dry hops after the burn out.

I was watching the feed from Orlando when a stocker went in to deep during eliminations and didn't get a red. I thought he should have gone red. Maybe people questioned why not.

Joe C. , who claims to be a sportsman racer, said they were checking the dial -ins , but that didn't appear to be the case, from my vantage point.

Asking for myself, not a friend...
My question would be if I accidentally deep stage can I backup and light the pre-stage again? What if I back all the way out and come back in? Bill |

Just so we are on the same page , over staging = you deep staged by mistake for any reason you are out . And not just a double bulb mistake and you must back out and re-stage . I can't recall the last time I saw it happen but it makes you think twice on taking an extra bump or 2 if you've been alittle on the late side of the tree or a hot greasy track .
