I was just going to make that point. To expound on it then, the DD DQ's him. They then tell the guy who was out, that he's in. Then the first party goes to the tower to make their case.
20 min. later the DD would have to say okay, you're in. Then he has to tell the guy who was out, then in , that he's out again, because all the other guy did was put it in reverse after the finish line , smoke the tires ,and cross over into his lane.
I've been around NHRA long enough to tell you it ain't gonna happen.
