AS I said you do not have to run a Throttle stop to race the .90 classes. In fact some folks are quite sucsessful in S/ST not using an electronically controlled t stop. When the classes first began cars were slowed down like any other index deal, weight, timing, mechanical stop...Like I said there is no rule stating you have to run a Throttle stop. In fact some may argue running lets say 9.90 at 131 might have an advantage over the guys running 9.90 at
175...Arguements are there for both ways.

These are in fact called "heads up index classes" Everyone leaves at the same time, just a matter of how one chooses to run the number. It will still be boring to spectators I suppose because it truly is not heads up fist guy there wins.
