Re: "Pinks"
It's usually best 2 of 3. We'll say Racer 1 is a sandbagger.
Race 1
Racer 1 - Runs just fast enough to win.
Racer 2 - Runs all out and loses by 1 car.
Race 2 - Racer 2 gets 1 car.
Racer 1 - Runs a little faster, just enough to win by 1/2 car.
Racer 2 - Runs all out and loses by 1/2 car.
Race 3 - Racer 2 gets 3 cars (after all, if Racer 2 loses once more, his car is gone)
Racer 1 - Runs all out and wins by 2 cars.
Racer 2 - Runs all out and loses by 2 cars.
Racer 1 was sandbagging until the final race. They were lying about how fast their car was in order to negotiate a more favorable race. That's how it works.
