In a way, I suppose.

I originally stated that my glow light goes out in about 10 seconds and the relay clicked off in another 30 seconds. I asked you how I could "just leave the gp circuit engaged for a TIMED 60 seconds" since my relay cuts the glow off at 30 seconds. I was thinking that I was only getting 40 seconds of glow and stated that I immediately switch off the key and restart the glow procedure to get more glow time before starting.

I didn't think it would be helpful to let my car sit for 20 seconds between glow cycles so that's why I was trying to work through all this with you guys. It turns out that I was correctly hearing the glow plug relay clicking and I am benefitting from my two glow cycles.

Hopefully this explains my intentions to you and you don't think I'm trying to be a smart-@ss.
