99% sure its Daniluk and ya it was BS just like the RD breaking my Return band and DQ'ing me as well...However, It was stated NO ONE was allowed any stools except for the few kids *8-10 years old* that were racing. Also he failed to show for Sunday mornings drivers meeting which was mandatory and Steven knows that as he's raced many big races before.

I wish people would pick the dang things up. I have stumbled over them several times.

The driver's stands are like 9 feet in the air and you need a 6" step stool?
If you're over 5 feet tall, you don't need one of these. Almost every driver seems to have one these days, it's getting absurd. Ok, gripe session over.

What's wrong with a stool??
There are some big tracks out there that don't have tall enough drivers stands. That extra 6-12 inches of height that the stool provides can be a big help sometimes. They are especially helpful for blind spots created by obstacles. If you want to outlaw them, you've obviously never been to a track where you need one. I've seen chairs used, tall buckets, etc... All of which are much higher than a small stool. The real question is why would you want to outlaw them??? What harm do they do?

My track has a few booster on the stand all the time, i honestly need one.
Im 5'9" and where our rail is it would be perfect to be 6'2" or above where i hold my TX.
If i dont have the booster i have to stand back and am blind on sides, or i have to hold my TX up high and cant even make it throw a qualify run before im tired
The leaning over sounds like a better option, i will try that this weekend

There is no problem with these are all.
These tracks are so big and so deep that it is hard to see certain spots of the track from a certain part of the drivers stand.
9 foot drivers stand with a track that is what say 120 feet deep with 4 foot high piles of dirt in the way of sight. That extra 6 inches can be beneficial.
Dont worrying what other people are doing and just drive.

Not a fan of these either. It started as 1 or 2 but now the hole damn drivers stand has them so it's no different than if they had none. I kick 'em out of the way if they're where I want to stand; take your crap with you when you're done. Short peeps and kids, yea, I can using them (again, take it with you when you're done).

the track by my house "impounds" the little stands if left behind, that is only because one went flying and broke some stuff one day, i personally dont see the purpose of using them, like stated earlier, your already 10-15 feet in the air, what good is 6 inches gonna do?
