YOUR post # 23 (you agreeing with Bunkster on breakout rule revision)
Once one vehicle breaks out, the other vehicle ought to be immune?
Bunkster: "The first to foul, and the first to breakout are always the loser." Seems like this would be a consistent application of the notion of "first".
Bill Dedman: "wish I'd said that"
And you just told me nobody wants to change breakout rules. Guess you're no saint.

Here's you post #13 on red lights: "So dumb to even continue this but I can't help it.
It's so simple. Once the first car fouls, THERE IS NO RACE from that point on. The red lighter has been ELIMINATED and the race is OVER. What the second driver does after that is of no consequence because the round is already over. Unless foul worse than a red light occurs. It's a time trial, test n tune pass, a chance to win the Perfectly Strange award, if they still have that, wave to you friends whatever.
So take that last beating you dead horse......"
All that did was tell us that you have NO UNDERSTANDING that with the new red light rule, THE RACE WON'T BE OVER UNTIL BOTH CARS HAVE EACH HAD THEIR CHANCE TO RED LIGHT. That's the whole point of this discussion. If you don't understand that, at this point, I'd suggest you enroll in some remedial reading comprehension classes.
RE: Bunkster's post #22: He said, "The enthusiasm for "first" in the case of the starting line, I presume this would apply to the finish line as well?
Once one vehicle breaks out, the other vehicle ought to be immune?
"The first to foul, and the first to breakout are always the loser." Seems like this would be a consistent application of the notion of "first".
He knows that nobody will go along with a stupid rule like that, so he's comparing it with the OTHER stupid rule, the current red light rule.
Since you didn't "get that" (the sarcasm) I can see why you thought what you thought.
Try to keep up...
My agreeement with his sarcasm in post 22: "Excellent logic, Mr. Bunkster. I can't imagine a valid argument against what you have suggested.
Wish I'd said that...
The only instance a "first red light" makes any sense is in a heads-up race. DUH..."
See, I trashed both the red light AND the first breakout in the last sentence...
Nobody DOES want to change the breakout rules. Ask anyone... I sure don't.
