I have had it happen to me in Modified at an IHRA race.
Have no idea how it is interpreted these days.

Two ways to look at it, with Driver B being reinstated in either case.

1. Driver B was red first, but the car being light is worse. The “first” rule only applies to equal infractions, and being light is definitely worse. Driver B advances.

2. Driver A may have scaled light after the run, but he staged a car that was not legal so he was “first” anyway. Driver B advances.
