If the win light is put on hold, then the chaser has to follow his plan of action. If it involves cutting it too close, then the red light margins decide the winner. The chaser has to be given the opportunity to lose to make this fair.
Hello all
The way true start is set up the win light or Red light does not come on till both cars have left the starting line. Example Car A has the spot Car B leaves 2nd.
Car A turns it 001 red, the red light will not show until Car B leaves the starting line.
If both car A & B red light, both red lights will show on the tree and the score board will show the true winner.
Not saying I like it or don't like it, but as long as I know it is being used before I enter the race that's cool with me.
