IF YOU CAN BELIEVE THIS, THIS IS A COPY OF WHAT ONE OF THE TRACK PEOPLE POSTED IN THERE FORM ( Get with Jimmy or Ginger we can do Instant green. No Red Light, Just Stage and then the green light comes on.
Todd ) AND MY RE POST WAS THIS ( I guess i am slowwww. or i didn't understand, ( Instant Green ) i dont see how that would fix it. when the other car jumps you at the tree. he should get the Red light and a automatic loss.. or are you saying that no matter what. when both cars are fully staged. they both get green no matter what. ?? just trying to be very clear on these un written. Grudge race track rules, LOL... :roll: :roll: :roll:

My reply would be, why not do it light (i mean like lol ) the rest of the world does it?
That is the entire reason for THE RED LIGHT isn't it??

The only thing they're doing is making it so people aren't going to race there!

Sad, but in my opinion next time it will just be some other bs reason something else changes.

That rule is even more stupid than some of the tracks in Ms. have like if you deep stage and it's not marked on the windshield DEEP, then you automatically lose, there's not a NHRA or IHRA track in the world that will disqualify you for deep staging, but Holly Springs Ms. will, and that's an outlaw track.

Guys please bear in mind that this happened at the Midnight Drags. This is a grudge / street racer program that most of us bracket racers try to clear out before it starts. Every other type of racing at the facility is ran as expected. Not putting them down since it gets a lot of guys off the streets, but it's not the only crazy stuff to ever happen there.
