This is what I don't understand about drag racing at all.  I can see why
you want stage and pre stage lights.  But why do you get the yellow
countdown lights?  Why not just turn on a green and some arbitrary and
secret interval?  That would be a true measure of reaction time, how
quickly one can react to an unknown event.

Note, I'm not trying to flame or change the sport, I just don't understand it.
