It's to let the track official know you're going to deep stage so he won't start the tree until you've
completed the deep stage. Maybe they'll hold the tree, maybe they won't. So if you're going to
deep stage, get up there 1st.

Makes sense....Thanks.......

RE: Deep?

It must suck when someone goes to deep stage and they go to far and get the red. I've seen it in dirt drag racing when I was a little kid. Guys got pretty pissed over that kind of crap.

RE: Deep?

It would be very unlikely for someone to go red from rolling in too far. When you deep stage you roll in far enough to turn out the pre-stage bulb. When you see that bulb go out you know you are deep. Going deep can cause you to to "red light" on the start though. That is more common. Of course the person in the other lane has a big smile when you do it.
