Default With respect to Steve Taylor, racing for package

In the worse redlight post mention is made of "racing for package" Thus, a separate discussion.

Around 1998 Steve Taylor began promoting the worse red light rule. About 18 years later, the ideal came into reality.

He called the idea "Drag 2000" and explained to me the idea came to him while watching a big money bracket race and seeing a number of racers advance to the next round because the slower car was red.

In addition, part of his drag 2000 idea was to race for "package" His concept was the amount from perfect [either positive or negetive] would be your package number.

Example,

*racer #1 has a reaction of .020 and is .007 over dial. He has a .027 package
*racer #2 has a reaction of .498 and is .010 over dial. Racer #2 is the winner with a smaller .012 package
