[Fot] standing starts

[alfetta95 at optonline.net]

Every year I do a 2 hour Enduro at Pocono with EMRA.  This is really a crowd pleaser because we do a modified LeMans start.   Drivers sit in the cars with the engines running.  The cars are backed with the right rear corner of the car to the Pocono front straight wall.  A Team member, at the drop of a flag, runs across pit lane and smacks the rear of the car.  At that time, tires start squealing, engines are racing and its organized chaos!  High powered Corvettes and Camaros dodging the Alfas, Triumphs and Mazdas. Its great!  I look forward to it every year.
 
My two cents
