A. YES! The AutoStart system is incorporated into every class that is run at US 131 MSP, from Test & Tune to Top ET. This system starts the tree automatically when the timing system senses two fully staged vehicles so the starter can concentrate more on the track and conditions of the race. Here’s how it works: when the system sees both cars prestaged and ONE of the cars staged, it starts a timer (actual length of timer is class specific, please inquire with the tower for the timer length in your particular class). If the second car does not enter the staging beams within the timer’s parameters, a redlight is activated for that car. This redlight will NOT be negotiated under any circumstance. Remember, the system needs to see three lights before it starts the timer – two prestages and a stage. Don’t try to burn down your opponent.
