If the rule was changed the other driver would not have seen the red because the tree divider would extend all the way down. This also gets rid of the whole "why should I stay on my two-step.." because you would never know the other guy red lit until you left the line.

I know this scenario does not affect us but think about a crosstalk race where both drivers leave off the same bulb, why on earth would this not be worst red light? Did the slow car's red distract the fast car's delay box? Faster drivers actually set up a little more conservative on the delay box to take advantage of this.

Bobby, I don't watch that bracket crap using cross talk. I had no idea how that worked.
Extending the divider couldn't cost that much. Be an easy cure. I always leave first, but never worried about it. Don't remember ever having a double red light round.
