Andy,

Just to clarify, by first seeding tiebreaker do you mean the first criteria used to break a tie if the primary criteria is tied OR the primary criteria itself?

E.g. This year, the primary criteria is Won-Loss record, with the first tiebreaker being accumulated losers score.

What I meant was the first tiebreaker AFTER win loss record, which was the primary criteria. I will give everyone who answered a chance to fix your answer if you feel the need.

what did they put controls on before 1995?

Re: 3 Questions!!! (2/17/04)
 

Before the platforms were used, controls were just held by the drivers and operators in hand as they stood on the side of the field.
