I have left late waiting on a third honk since the cars exhaust some times drowns out a horn, maybe that is why.

Maybe you've never raced two boosted cars... spooling... also with loud exhaust... side by side...

Or two... or even three as in the video... loud as all hell non-boosted cars together...

I haven't either but I would *guess* that hearing the honks could be really, really hard.

Exactly, the cobra in the first run and my dual 3 inch with 1 chambers made it look like i was late to the game, because i was, i heard the second honk, (barely), thought it was the first and then they rolled out early on me, as you can see it didnt matter:

Can be a possibility. But on a race it was 3 cars running, im sure the farthest car from the person yelling wont hear ****, and will then leave late.
But never done roll racing, just a dig.

Try a 6-7 way at a TX2K event, you just gotta watch the car next to you and hope you get the hit.

The passenger in the middle lane car keys on the passenger in the left lane car and yells and signs 1-2-3 out the window in synch. I mean, I'm guessing that's how they do it. Not perfect, but it may work decently well.

He's been down a few weeks now. Putting a bump steer kit, and new valvesprings. It should be out doing work again soon
