If the slower car goes green and the faster car goes red, the faster car IS immediately DQd, with no further chance to win that round.
Sounds to me like the slower car gets another chance to win when he redlights. That's all I'm trying to say.
Want absolute fairness? If anyone goes red during elims, they are DQd. It would surely muck up the race, but you would have attained absolute "fairness".
Sounds like a good way to create more competition singles for the rest of the next round's winners.
