How popular do you think that would be?
If all four cars in the semi's were to double R/L or double B/O, who gets the money? NHRA?
Not a workable plan.
Moving on....

The first or worst rule makes sense, and if the debate to have is whether to have a "worst" rule only , if both R/L and B/O, how do you determine who was the worst offender?? The earliest leave, or the most under... you could get dizzy trying to figure out who should be the winner with a big red & just under vs a slight red and waaay under.....
