Here's one for you - Jeremy Mckague showed up at the track, unloaded his car, treated us all like little bitches, took most of the money(not all because he chopped it up with his victims in the finals) loaded up and went home! Cheater That guy is lower than a snake belly. Lower than a snakes belly in the Mariana trench!

You've never bumped someone into the other lane? Never quick staged someone who had deep on their window? Never took a little longer to pull into the beems when someone double bulbed? Most of this site involves debates over rules...long throw buttons. Slew rate ignition curves, launch control in Sportsman. It goes on and on. Bracket racers love their rules... nope

I guess I'm a little old fashioned or maybe a little thick in the head but I was raised to play by the rules , to me it's the American way . Yes I have double bulbed someone but it was on accident and I found them in the pit and apologized . Have I ever thrown someone to the other lane , yes , but we both wanted the same lane and I won the spin , draw , faster car , or I was pulled for the by run ,but I never threw someone overand took the other lane that I didn't want just to mess with someone , and as far waiting at the back of staging duck hunting nope . If I pull down the lanes and see my pair is the guy in the 6 speed manual camaro with street tires and the person says this is my first time bracket racing yes I'm happy but I'm not going to pull down the lanes and I see my pair is a top level racer I'm not going to bail to the other lane to avoid them ,the glory comes from beating the racers who are known to be the great ones not the ducks .(don't get me wrong beating the ducks is fun too )

I don't care who I race I'm going to have fun. If I don't win it's my fault or the car broke. No whining. We'll just work on being better next time ;-)

Not everyone plays that way. Lead a points chase and you'll be surprised at the things that happen.

It's a hollow victory if you twist/cheat to win .

Gotta ask, how is bumping someone into the other lane twisting the rules? If I am on the bye run and already know my next round opponent and know they have ran the same lane all night, I will make my bye run in their lane and try to bump them over the next round. That's not twisting the rules that's racing smart.

A lot of what I read as "twisting" the rules are not even that. They are things that gets some peoples panties in a bunch when they shouldn't. For example getting double bulbed. That is not even a rule. Somewhere someone thought that wasn't fair and cried about it. Now for some reason some others think this is a bad thing. It isn't. It should not effect you in no way. The autostart doesn't activate till 3 bulbs are on. You still have 10 seconds to stage after you prestage. If you feel hurried that is your fault.
If I have lane choice and pick the lane that I feel gives me the best chance to win how is that twisting the rules? Why should I let my opponent have a lane that gives them a better chance to beat me?

I've never waited on any one in lanes Not have I ever been asked to take a dive or Paid to be a duck Although I have seen it done heard of it going on You can't fix stupid people

What are you saying Lol That those who lead do the most cheating and twisting Paying for racers to take dives etc lol Quite the opposite. From what I've seen its the people chasing the leader who get desperate and will do almost anything to catch up.
