Chances are that the box cars will have 1 less round to race, throw the remaining box car in the semis of no box. I footbrake in NO Box, do I have an unfair dis-advantage? Not in my opinion. I'll lay down $$ that a box car doesn't get past the last 2 no box cars for the win.

If you take TEN DRIVERS from BOX and TEN DRIVERS from NO BOX ( RANDOM DRIVERS) and you average the NO BOX reaction times and the BOX reaction times,, you would realize that the "BOX" drivers have a MUCH BETTER reaction time... Does the "BOX" contribute to the better reaction time??? It most CERTAINLY DOES,, otherwise WHY WOULD ANYONE SPEND THE MONEY TO PURCHASE A BOX???? So,, How could you THINK there is NOT an advantage?????



If you take ten random drivers, I agree with you. If you take the box cars and mix them with the no box cars the whole race, I agree there is an unfair advantage to the box cars. Take whomever is in the final with the box car and I am pretty certain they can hold their own on the tree. You wont get that far without being able cut lights as good as the Super Pro guys. Also, will lay down money that the average reaction time of the No Box Nationals two weeks ago was as good as any Super Pro race!


Since when does having the better light always turn on the -W- anyway?

Good point Won plenty of races being the second off the line. But it starts up front and if you are second off the tree you better be within .02 of the other racer or pray that they suck at the other end.

Or..... We can just run a gamblers race with a 50% payback like other events and the box guys won't ever have to race the no box guys.....

So here is the poll

Box v no box for 100% payback.

Or........

Same old gamblers race....

Ill let the racers decide

Keep it 100% payout, you will never please everyone anyhow.
If you line up worrying about the box in the other car you already lost.

No fear of Box cars here, I used to run S/P at Edgewater when they still ran 1/4 mile. At many of the CCEvents, I would enter both gamblers, made it to semis at Columbus in Box one year.

Dennis-i thought I taught you and Don better than that-if you and other guy are only 2 left-you have a 50/50 chance of winning-either you will or you wont-I will take 50/50 chance every time-let us pray-heavenly father-lets get onto something else-we have cried enough over this item.
