[QUOTE= Why don't you tackle important issues and leave the "first or worst" alone?[/QUOTE]

If it were "First OR worse, it wouldn't need any attention. But, worse has no place in red lights, with the current rules.

"Why don't you tackle important issues and leave the "first or worst" alone?"

It's "twisted logic" that asks questions like that.

Not once have I heard a fellow racer tell me they lost via red light, then bitch about it or say "It's not fair, the other guy didn't have a chance to red light".

Don't you think that a red light is a lot like a breakout, in that everybody should have the same chance to disqualify themselves if they mess up?

They don't.

I don't know how many times it needs to be said before everybody "gets it," but if they ran the breakouts like they do the red lights, only the first car to break out would be eliminated instead of the one with the worse infraction.

Why don't they do that???
