Kenji,

Hey man, how are you doing? It has been a few years since you visited Trackside.

We start the mains at Trackside with a rolling, single file start. By far the cleanest first laps of all the methods we have tried. Lemans may lead to too much carnage as drivers try to accelerate, turn onto the straight and avaoid each other. Inverted starts are fun, but if there is a bit of skill diferential front to back, it is difficult to have clean racing for several laps.

Tuesday night we had 20 entries in T/A. 10 in A and 10 in B. Both starts were single file rolling starts and very clean. Just a bit of rubbing, but clean none the less. If you want to observe how it works for us at Trackside, Next Tuesday sign into RCLive and watch the mains, They should start around 9:00 pm, CST.
