There is a little more, but this pretty much sums it up.

This is a cut & paste from the 2017 NHRA Rulebook:

Anytime it
has been judged that excessive braking has resulted in loss of
control that results in contact with the guardwall and/or light
fixtures or crossing the center boundary lines, INCLUDING
PAST THE FINISH LINE, the contestant will be disqualified
Contact with guardwall, barriers, or any other track fixture
(rubber cones, when used, are considered visual aids, not
fixtures) is grounds for disqualification and/or other actions.
Intentional crossing of boundary lines to leave track or avoid
depositing debris on track is not grounds for disqualification

Did he violate any provision of this rule??????

I watched the video and he doesn't appear to have....

Write a rule and enforce that rule....

and if you notice there is no mention of smoke from the tires being a disqualification....

I don't believe that this rule sums up anything with regard to the Emmons D/Q
