While it does happen, the instances of both drivers red-lighting aren't super frequent. On top of that, the majority of races will have close enough handicaps that the red-light would be displayed (if applicable) before the slower car even got to the 60'. Stock is an outlier anymore, with larger handicaps than we see in most bracket racing these days.

The rule certainly makes sense for Box classes, since both drivers are reacting to the same light, at the same time. For bottom-bulb racing, I'm ambivalent towards the idea. As long as I know what the rules of the playground are, and they're the same for everybody, I'm happy to play on it.

I applaud Peter & Kyle being able to accomplish what they wanted to get done. Many people had begged Compulink for years to implement changes that would allow AutoStart to recognize Deep Staging, to no avail.
