DRR Trophy
| The first started the timer. You can back out to prestage if your opponent hasn't staged yet. So the first car staged long enough (about .6 seconds) to stage lock and start the timer, then backed out since his opponent hadn't yet staged. But the 7-10 second stage timer had started. Both cars would have timed out if the first car hadn't gone back in. Which obviously he did this on purpose. That's why it's important to understand how the timing system works

| I understand him being a little upset and it is a sorry way to win but he should have bumped in and ran. https://postimg.cc/gallery/np3zpruo/"Dunning-Kruger Effect" -a type of Cognitive bias where people with little expertise or ability assume they have superior expertise or ability. This overestimation occurs as a result of the fact that they do not have enough knowledge to know they don't have enough knowledge. Before you argue with someone ask yourself, "Is this person mentally mature enough to grasp the concept of a different perspective?"

| Been done by many since autostart was implemented. There was no trickery, all that have a clue knew exactly what he was doing. It’s gamesmanship and if you don’t know how autostart works after about 15 years in use, my advice is stay home. |

He followed the rules as they are written, nothing illegal about it whether everyone agrees with it or not.
Exactly! |
