Seriously tech involves...
-You got a seatbelt(anyone would do)...Check
-Your battery secured...Check
-You got coolant...Check
That's all. Oh and don't get trapped by the stupid stage light trick on the launch pad, which im sure 90% of us did when we first raced.
-
where you have to light up both rows of stage lights in order for the tree to go...
i know ive done it, and a couple more people have.

That's not stupid(referring to your previous post). It's a way to make sure both racers are ready at the same time. As a courtesy, you should both prestage, then you procede to stage and light up both lights.

Thats not what i mean, i meant you feel stupid when you go over the light and have no idea what your doing. the stage lights are great since both rider start at the same spot. but when its your first time and you have no idea what they mean, youll tend to just line up for the hell of it.

My first time, I just waited for the other guy to go....I figured if my reaction didn't affect e/t, why bother trying to get a quick jump? -

Before my first race I had read all about staging on a web site. Here's a link to an article I just looked up. http://www.hotrod.com/howto/42298/

And yes, its true.
My car is broken, so I won't be there tomorrow.
A gasket between my turbo and manifold blew out on a highway run last night; then three of the four bolts decided to break off in the exhaust housing, and I guess they can't be drilled out...
SO i will be on the sidelines once again in my crx.
