Hi Gary,
I have no illusions about changing the mind-set of
the Neanderthals. I'm continuing this discussion in
the hope that contest managers and CD's will see the
potential dangers in using the finish gate. Who knows,
maybe a Director or two might just be listening, or
even the rules committee?

'fun' equation. When you are finishing at 50 feet
and 150 mph and
something goes wrong there really aren't too many options.
