Who the he!! do you think you are running down the people at my track and their abilities ? Its been in continuous operation since 1955. How many tracks can say that.
We have a few racers that travel all over the country for big time bracket races.
I cut a .027 and most of the time that gets a win, but he cut a .020. Both ran our dials.
You know NOTHING about racing with a Delay Box!
Im not personally running down the racers at the only track you race at (that just SILLY), I'm just calling it like I see it! If you a Foot Braker can run S/pro and clean theirs clocks as much as you say you do , then it is what it is! Just Saying!

Now George, you leave on the top bulb and punch in your delay, right ?
That means in between the time you first see the top bulb and hit your button there is a human component. Same as when I try and time my release of my Trans brake (don't foot brake anymore, read George, read) to the bottom bulb.
Its the same thing only with a delay user having slightly more control.

I don't clean anyone's clock on a regular basis. I just have some good days and bad ones. Just no stranger to going rounds.
Not actually asking you out here, it would be like me hauling to Norwalk. Not going to happen.
But if you think a good foot braker gets his clock cleaned regularly by racers just because they run a delay box you are NUTS. Its bracket racing with rules designed to make it a level playing field. I got shut down one by a guy on his first ever pass. He had a .004 first time, what do you do with that ?

BTW, you ending every "short post" with "JUST SAYING" is lame, lame and just freaking weak and childish. Its like you can say whatever snarky, crappy and degrading thing you want and make it OK with "just saying".
Its the same thing kids in my school did in the 5th grade. But they would say something snarky and cover it with "no". I knew it was bad behavior then and how is yours different ?
Didn't you ever grow up ??
