WJ lets them screw with him instead of being proactive and screwing them first. I was telling the wife that when he do stuff like light his top bulb first and then the second the other car lights their top bulb WJ should light his 2nd bulb. This would make the other driver feel rushed and maybe lead to a mistake.
Next time he could go straight from the burn out to the prestage beam and then wait for the other car to light their 2nd light no matter how long it takes.
Another thing that happened at Memphis was Yates took too long to stage and got counted out so the other lane got a bye.
Earlier this year Brandon Bernstein had a bye run and screwed up the burnout and killed the motor so that he could not take the green and therefore was eliminated.
The craziest thing I have EVER seen happened a couple of years ago. Force was racing somebody and the other guy left before the tree was activated and Force reacted to that and he left before the tree was activated and due to a rule that had just been written both drivers were eliminated. Force was HOT. He got over it and apologized on TV for being so POed. In the past it was always 'first or worst'.
