Maybe we should just go back to the old ways and if both cars go red both are out. Double breakout? No winner. That's how US 30 did it when I started racing. Both went red or broke out in the final and both got 2nd place money.
Also, do away with round money. Pay 4 places and you race for all 4, no 3rd and 4th get the same money crap. In all seriousness, here's a question, and this happened at RT 66 a few years ago. Buddy of mine was dialed at 10:73 in his Duster. His opponent was dialed at 10:72 in a Camaro. Both cars go red. My buddy went -.004 and the other guy went -.057. Who won? |

Yeah, Mike, it's hard to argue when you're in an indefensible position... LOL!
Thanks for realizing it...

"First or Worst" rule should apply...regardless of the amount of lanes run...I'm sure this
situation has come up for discussion before.... As Lew said earlier, this "4-wide" stuff isn't something new. I've never seen a 4-lane race in person, but have looked at archival photos from the '60's...places like Detroit Dragway, Fresno, and York US-30 tried this type of racing...and perhaps many others... |

That sounds like a timing system programming error. The computer should have realized which beam was tripped first.
