Since NHRA made this rule after Orlando. They seen certain competitors are turning on both lights and backing up just enough to turn out the bottom bulb. They do it in their time runs and in competition every time. There is a reason they are doing it. You would have to ask them why. Same ones that have been doing it years past as well. They need an advantage to win the way I see it..
