There was a bar. It just wasn't very effective, as you can see.

I know from experience that is illegal in RCPro...can't say for other organizations.

HaHa, we were trying this at a couple club races. Got the idea form a pair of the faster locals.

Problem is if you time it wrong your throwing a car out infront of a speeding racer on the straight. Crunch.
