"Pinks"

The best way I can explain sandbagging is when someone doesnt run their car for all its got. They wait until the last race and turn her loose

Oh, how weak. I'm guessing they don't go best 2 out of 3 on pinks, otherwise that wouldn't make much sense. Are the first runs "practice runs" and only the last one counts? I don't watch tv much, and I'm pretty sure I'm the last person on earth that only has regular *** tv, so I really have no clue about how they do things on "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.
