Cant a Modern Version of the Hubrail be Installed?

[bond]

bring back the rail or set standards for all tracks.

Make pylons with a sensor in it. When wheel goes on wrong side a red light on top of pylon goes on and stays on for 5 mins.
If you run inside 2 you get placed behind the lapped on horses 3 pylons you get placed last
Simple and no judgement calls needed

How often does this rule get violated to have this many topics on pylons and hubrails?

I don’t like any change that could hurt a horse or driver physically but I do agree we need to take it out of the judges hands. I think that if they just use the thought that the pylons are there instead of a hub rail that alone should take care of it . If you go inside 1 you get placed because if you would of hit a hubrail you would of made a break or had to grab anyway . Imo

You lost me, Hush. But, at least you did not say it was Gural's fault.

  EXCELLENT POINT!!

Two years ago a fellow came up with a saddle cloth that had illuminated sensors and the trigger sensor was in the pylon and if the wheel went inside the pylon a disk on the saddle cloth would be activated. Each saddle cloth had 4 disks and they could accurately determine which pylon was triggered by computer. The demo went off without a hitch but nobody went for it.

Must have " cost too much" to protect the integrity of racing........... ....... Just let everyone run rampant,with no set rules of guidelines is whats best

More often than you think, if someone watches enough races at enough tracks. Drivers always looking for the slightest edge, and poor drivers , well they just can't steer!!

And as for lasers, I remember some guys were hiding out at Yonkers or Roosevelt way back when with lasers and were shooting horses going into the last turn.  One kid cashed a nice ticket after KO'ing a couple of the chalks.

Now for our daily prayer:  Fuck Jewffrey Gural.  Amen.     Until next time, sweeties......... ......HEIL HITLER!!
