How about best losing package in the previous round gets back in the spot of the bye run? Only laddered bye run would be first round for the #1 qualifier who would deserve the bye if there were a odd number if cars. After that best losing package racers would be put in the spot where bye a bye would normally be. Wouldn't hurt car counts, not complicated, only would cost the tracks or nhra a few bucks extra for paying a loser one round later and would give a racer who just came out in the wrong end of a good race another shot. More of a earn back than a buy back......
