Subject: Abilene Racetrack

Abilene race track needs to watch the starting line. I thought allowing someone burn down another car is wrong. you get 8 seconds then red lighted. Frankie Taylor was getting burned down hard while the other car wasn't even trying to move in the sec. beam. unfortualy someone needs to start watching to make sure this doesn't happen again.

I have to agree with the comments made about Frankie being burned down. I was there and Frankie was burned down!!. Tempers will flare when racing rules are not followed by all racers. Why was'nt the other guy disqualified or given the red light???? He was scared because he knew that he did not stand a chance running Frankie!!!! Better luck next time Frankie. ajf

I didnt see it that way . I see a car staging very slow
because the lights were very close . he was moving into
the lights when the starter had his starter box jurked out
of his hand . in my book this was uncalled for. both cars
were blowen cars . both started at the same time . so the
other car was just as hot . thier no reason to act that way. and where do you get 8 sec and your red . show this to me? I WOULD LIKE TO SEE THIS RULE!
we should act like pros / not babies

I think Racer needs to stop and think about what he's saying. If you are in a car ready to race you expect to race not play little kiddy games. If a person won't get in the beams the other driver should get the win. You do have a time limit to get in the beams and if you don't you get the red light. It's just the way it goes. I was there, the other car didn't even attempt to stage it. If you don't have the guts to get up there, stage your car and run it down the track without trying to screw over the other driver then you should stay in the pits.
