If you can't hack it, don't do it. A huge amount of the Buz of a "Race" is lost with a roller. With a "Proper" start you have "2" races, a drag race and then straight after a Road race.  |
What a narrow minded argument. I would rather all the cars make the first lap with out stalled cars and burnt out clutchs and that includes F1, how many times have we seen that? Or the carnage at the first bend. The race is for what an hour and half so lets have as many cars out there competing so we the spectators can enjoy it.
BTW I agree with MG David I have done rolling starts since short circuit days and only 4 on the circuits and trust me the excitement and build up on the warm up lap is electrifying.
