It seems that in light of the ruling at the Olympics, NHRA is thinking about using that to set the precedence. It was noted that several Badminton teams were laying down to get a more favorable draw later in the event and it has long been known that stockers do the same thing. So now that the Olympics have disqulified those teams, NHRA is looking at that ruling in an effort to speed up events. Many racers want to run late so as to see how the others are qualifying and because of that, it takes way to long to get them into the lanes. So they said they will look at the mph on qualifying runs and if they deem that it was not a full pass, the racer will be disqulified.
