of letting a little old man have his last hurrah. You're like Don Quixote chasing wind mills.In you're case chasing Chrondek Xmas trees. Keep on ranting.We need you for the entertainment value. And btw the third choice on the other poll is more related to leaving the rule as is.So both polls are consistent. They're both about 63% to 37%.But you'll spin it off,as usual.

Spin this: The first red light rule is a relic that came into being 48 years ago along with the advent of the Christmas tree. There was no software at the time to compare red lights, so the only alternative was to make the first car the loser, ignoring the second car to leave's reaction time, and sending him to the next round, regardless of whether he red lit, or how badly. After a period of many years, the software has been developed to correct this glitch. Why would any racer who values fairness not want to change and make it like the breakout rule (worse infraction loses)????

Maybe we should change the breakout rule to whoever is closer to the dial, whether under or over, wins. C'mon Bill, to much changing, just to be changed. Why don't we change the feeling we get when our pants are pulled down, we're bent over, and ram rodded with B.S. that we ALL don't want!!!

What are you talking about with your " C'mon Bill, to (sic) much changing, just to be changed." comment? Sounds like you haven't been paying much attention... Let me guess; you run a higher class car... And it's not at all "just to be changing." It's to give EVERYONE the same chance to red light. What's wrong with that?

NHRA, it’s time to fix the inequity of foul starts at the starting line. Don’t hesitate any longer on this issue. You couldn't get it right all those decades ago, but you can now.
Just fix it and be done with it: Foul start equity for everyone. Who could possibly think it unfair? |

Good luck getting it changed Bill. Just keep on ranting.
Guess it gives you something to do. How about we all get to retire on a minimum of $200,000.00 a year. I mean a lot of guys have that, why not all of us? Only fair, right? LMAO
