NHRA seeking input on Delay Boxes/Switches - Page 7

Absolutley NO for pro-tree in sportsman classes...those who need to flashrace to win rounds should continue with blinders and such...and leave the full three to those that wants or need it! CATCH THE CHEATERS INSTEAD OF SIMPLYFYING EVERYTHING ABOUT THESE CLASSES!!! taking away the full three is taking a dimension away from this type of racing...

sorry i was really to complain over that this thread changed a bit,like most others...and turned into a "christmas wishlist" ....just go and voice your opinion (you that can) and lets see what happens!

hey Billy,

The sox may not hit well this year, but they sure can pitch-good luck this weekend.

I like my 2 step and am to old to change now, but no to boxes.

A delay box allows you to move three straight .040 lights to make them .010 lights while still leaving at the same spot on the tree.

how is a DELAY box going to make you quicker? i could see a delay box take three -.040 lights and make .010 greens out of them but I don'tr think it will go the other way

Buttons are not a delay box. You still react to the flash. Not punch in some numbers and let a delay do the trick. It still is activated by the driver.

If delay boxes where made legal.
How about a delay box with a maximun delay of .099 , adjustable from .099 to .000 and a spec button ?
