Arm up?

[bigdemo1]

Just wandering why do guys raise their right arm when they are doing a burnout,does this signal the starter that they are rolling ahead?

are you meaning when they launch the car? maybe you are seeing people let their finger off the trans brake button and getting their hand out of the way?

No when they are doing their burnout,I've seen several people do this on pinks.

Probably releasing the line lock after heating the tires.

I guess no one else has noticed but it looks like they are holding their arm up about as high as their helmet just wandering if it's a signal?

Badart told me it was because of the build up of deodarant and pit stains.:-D

It does look like they are trying not to accidently hit a lever, or button, or shifter?
