Technically it is not a BUYBACK. It is a RE-ENTRY.

Buyback: Is when a racer with lots of money pays their way to the next round.

Re-Entry: Is when an unfortunate racer loses in the first rd, they have the option of paying for a 2nd chance. All the 1st rd Losers that choose to utilize this option came back to the lanes for 1 round of competition. After that rd the Winners only advance to the second rd to race with the first rd winners. Everyone in the second rd will have had to win a rd to get there.

Big Difference between a Re-Entry and a Buyback.
