Am I alone on this one?....

I'm in for four wide starts...

[Waldo]

Yes, I agree they should start the races 4 wide. People would pay $25 dollars to just see the start of that race.......................................

[kazual]

The most stirring 4 wide is USMTS mods. They have been doing it for a long time. Cars carrying American Flags and Lee Greenwood singing Proud To Be An American over the PA. If that doesn't give you a tingle then feel sorry for you.

3 wide...

I like the 4 wide salute at the world finals with all 3 classes on track, but other than that its kinda gotten old. Seen races with 15 or less cars still doing a 4 wide salute

[Waldo]

Okay, 3 wide, but start from a dead stop F1 style. I would like to see that.

Nope full racing speed!! If u can't keep up at the start tough sHT...

I wish all announcers would scream boogity, boogity, boogity. I miss the starts because that saying makes me want to rip my hair out. Yea four wide has gotten old.

[Black F]

They should only do a 4 wide salute at races $30,000 and over and start the World 100 3 wide!!!

[Zonks32x]

Driver intros at the USA Nats along with crazy fireworks during the 4-wide is pretty cool

[cgrace]

i really like four wide salute for any event thats like $10k or bigger. plus I like the parade laps. Drivers intro for major events are great too!

[callmez]

I don't know why every series has to do the same thing, can't anybody come up with something unique? I know there are only so many things you can do with a pack of cars, but let's say you sort 'em out on the backstretch and introduce the drivers one at a time as their cars pull into starting positions on the front stretch, and send them off for the start as soon as the last one arrives. Or instead of 4 wide, have 'em form a single row that circles the whole track for a couple of laps, with all drivers waving. Or whatever. Just to do something different.

Some things at the track, like a 4 wide salute. Are not done old grizzled 4m fan that has been to thousand races and knows everything. Some things are done to get new fans and kids excited. If kids and new fans are excited and into it, that's kind of important to the future of our sport. It's worth the extra 5 minutes for that reason alone.

Im hoping they will throw the green flag, while doing the 4 wide, then we might see a heckuva race.....and a big wreck too!

I'm in for four wide starts...

We are in agreement.

[CIRF]

IIRC the World of Outlaws sprint cars started the whole 4 wide thing. It would be good if someone would come up with some pre-race ritual unique only to the late models as opposed to copying another series/genre'.

The suggestion that they start the race 4 wide is a great idea. From a standing start would be even better.
