Yeah I do not get the heads up and grudge car forever stage procedure, makes no sense. I think if I were to get in the line of racing I would burnout and light the pre stage asap just to get in the other guys head.

I can see why a track may not want to do a bracket program, bracket guys can be fussy and high maintenance. Our local track really cut the schedule back and when it does have bracket events people [censored] about the timing in relation to other tracks(several within a few hours). This year it looks like they have added more bracket racing though which is good.
