Your point is valid if it was a heads up race. But this race was not. The rules we have make sthis a fair race. So with knowing that then picking the best car, over hang, motor combo would need to be looked at to take advantage of the rules at hand and gain that .005 to .01 at that speed. But the final round you are talking about was not. It was a bracket race with dial ins and if one driver or the other was fender racing then the wrong part of the fender was being watched or maybe human error. This is meant as no disrespect for the drivers involved as they are top notch drivers for sure. They way it is , is the way it is with the rules we are given. I personally don't see a problem with the outcome.
Looking at the math Brad needed to find .006 to win. Now if Brads front end tripped the finish line he would have won (maybe) and looks like he had plenty of room before breaking out. If Justin wheel tripped the finish line instead of his front end like it appears to have happened then maybe Brad would have won. To many ifs to know for sure so the best thing to do is know what you have and what your opponent has.
