Oh the ihra cared greatly enough that if either driver did not wanna do the runoff then the track would not be submitting a champion. And I can’t speak for everyone but I’m not about to bend over and take 3 L’s in a row, while everyone at the track is telling me how sorry I am, just my buddy can cheat his way into 1st

https://www.ihra.com/superseries-rules Here's the rules for the IHRA Summit Super Series World Championship. It does address the gifting rounds and dives. If the track allows this it may hurt them in points participation in the future. No fun to play a fixed game.

Wideopen, they either sat in their cars ready to rush to be the first pair, or dragged ass to be last in the lanes. They did take a chance on their being odd numbers pulling in last, but it miraculously worked out.

Its probably been 15 yrs ago that IHRA looked over the SSS rounds and disqualified a racer. It was down south somewhere. IHRA decided that this racer had been getting rds given to him by the same opponent all yr. This was in the early 2000s.

A guy named lance kittle is the one who took 3 l’s in a row. Racing “honest”. Don’t know him personally, but never seen a grown man let something like that go down in front of everyone and be ok with it.
