This was 100% the DD’s decision.

Once the DD assesses the situation and makes the call, the racers are out of it.

The DD can not over rule the RULE BOOK! There are too many case histories on this. Both drivers accepted the dials on the board. That's the rule. That's why they are in the rule book, to make decisions by. Case over. The DD has no clue what the book says. Jim

This is exactly what I was thinking. I had an instance at an NHRA track last year where my car died when I got on the 2-step. The other guy was spotting me about 2/10ths. His tree dropped, and he proceeded to run under. I fired my car, took the green, and drove it down but did not complete the run (turned off just after the 1/8th mile). Time slip showed me as the winner. The track owner asked me if I planned on coming up for the next round, otherwise he was going to reinstate the other car.
