Bill,
If TWO cars advance, then two cars are eliminated. (DUH!)
Which two get eliminated?
If the first two to leave are red-light LOSERS, then the cars with the reaction times closest to a perfect light (.000) would lose. That is diametrically-opposed to the established system for breakouts. where the car with the time closest to the dial-in WINS.
The worse offenders go on to the next round, using that logic.
"First or worse" is a playground for multiple intertpretations. I read where, if three cars in a 4-wide redlighted, the red-lighting car with the least infraction went on to the next round.
That makes all kinds of sense to me.
Probably never happen, but I thought it an interesting possibility.
