Re: NHRA Memphis National

Yeah, WJ makes "rookie" mistakes when people try to play those staging games with him. I mean as a racer, you know the ones that are going to try to mess with ya at the tree, and no more then I've drove, I ALWAYS bump my 2nd bulb as soon as they light there 1st (when I know its a driver that's going to try to have a staging duel). And you're right. It does throw the other person off, because their mindset is already set for a staging game, and when you don't play along, it messes them up big time.

And yeah, Jim Yates messed up bad by doing that.
