In that case it's most likely the swiftest of the singles that'll win (reaction times being equal)! Sorry but class pays my car $100 bucks or maybe less now, so it's hardly worth it for me anymore, because nearly all of the contingency postings I enjoyed for class back in '99 are gone now, so it's pointless to me to care about class eliminations...the only good I see is that it's a pre-race experience to prepare me for regular racing conditions the next day!

If class wins are not important to you why do you race in a performanced based class? Wouldn't it be better not to have to worry about how far under you can run and all the work and money it takes to get faster within the rules and just stay with bracket racing? Why put yourself through it?
