People need to realize that any set of rules weren't made to benefit or penalize them individually. All types of racing have rules to create a perceived level playing field between all competitors at a specific day/event. It is never perfect nor will it ever be perfect. It is just the best compromise that can be made with the current set of variables available to all competitors during that specific event or season. Stop treating it so personal.

There is nothing stopping anyone from racing how they want on their own or locally. If you want to modify existing rules for your local racing because "you know better", go for it. But for events that use USGT rules, the rules are clearly posted.

There aren't too many rules or not enough rules. There are just rules. Just race the rules as they exist the day you are racing and have some fun. Win or lose we are all playing with toy cars. I think the kid in all of us should find that fun enough!
