Personally, I would rather go to staging when I want. 
 
For what it's worth,  I like it the way it is for two reasons.  First, like 
Dan, I'd rather go to the staging area when I want to.  I don't run every 
chance I get, I run when I feel like it, and if it's two times a weekend, or 
four times a day, I like it that way.  I don't want my "window" to be when I'm 
replacing a clutch, taking a nap, eating lunch, or whatever. 
 
Second, I think it is very entertaining, when I'm not racing, to be able to 
watch a wide array of vehicles make their runs for the half hour or so that I 
might feel like standing along the sidelines to watch.  It's cool to see a 50cc 
bike followed by a flathead roadster, by a B fuel streamliner, etc. 
 
My daddy used to say: "Don't fix something that ain't broke."  Fellas, this 
ain't broke.  Look carefully at what you are doing before you light that fuse.  
Once it blows, there ain't no turning back.
