I also don't think you can use speed as the determining factor for DQing someone. Below is from this years Sportsnationals. Because of an issue I had on the starting line, my speed was down 31 mph. w/o hitting the brakes. There has to be someone (knowledgeable) watching the race, preferably from 1000' or more down track. Back in the day, SoCal ProGas (where SG was born) used to have a racer watch the finish line to decide excessive braking issues.
BTW........Sorry Bart.
