Hopefully, someone can shed some light on this question since I want to make sure my Series is on the same page of rules as NHRA. At the first race of the season for the .90 series, a driver had the earned bye-run in the 2nd round, he put both bulbs on, put it on the wood but, had it in high heat so he rolled the beams before the tree was ever activated. To me and the track officials this was always considered a DQ because they got no time and left before the tree was activated. The past weekend at Epping I saw the same thing happen in first round of SG but, the driver just got NT on the sheet and was allowed to move onto Round 2 and actually won that next round. I’m not pointing fingers but, just trying to get clarification as to what the rule is Incase this happens again. I know it might be a rare occurrence but, trying to prevent a misjudgment or someone being DQed when they shouldn’t be.
