I am not sure why I am responding to this post, but......No one has said get rid of the flagman. It is the flagman's job to make sure the race is started clean. That doesn't mean he needs to start the race. The pole-sitter can do that when he hits the starting line.

As someone else mentioned above, if the pole-sitter jumps too soon yellow-flag it. The first time is a warning, the second time he moves to the tail. The same thing goes for anyone else in line. If they jump the start or if they don't keep up at the start.

It's that simple. Races will start cleaner and you won't have the problems that are occuring now.
