Come on PBR back in the old days on the street many had mis matched combos and as well alot of us would go from a light/dead stop then go from a 30 roll if one couldnt launch well or hook, or had to drive into that big cam.

And then yes at times, go hit the interstate... but we avoided that because anyone too lean would burn pistons then.

But yes, serious street races were always from the light unless agreed otherwise.
