Chris, do you have any problems with cars stalling at the start and causing 
a wreck?  That's the usual reason given for using the rolling start instead 
of the standing start.  I've seen a few of these incidents in televised 
professional racing, but I've also seen my share of wrecks in turn 1 on 
rolling start pro races.
