It wouldn't make a difference to me, no matter what I drive, although I do have some things in the works for an A/SA car.
I've raced under the same rules for about 3 decades, give or take, and it seems like a reasonable balance to me, even when I go red first, but the other guy is more red than I am.
If I go red, I go red, if I do it first, shame on me, even if the other guy was worse. I don't care, I blame every loss on the guy I look at in the mirror when I brush my teeth. If I lost, I didn't do everything better than the guy in the other lane, or at least I didn't do enough things better than he did.

If you were in a car with a slower handicap(dial-in), what choice did you have????
YOU HAD NO CHOICE. If you redlight, it will ALWAYS be "first" if you are racing a quicker-handicapped car.
JEASUS...
Talk about circular logic...
Do you feel the same way about breakouts? I kind doubt it. Same deal... different rule.
