Because I think if I could get a 2 second handicap, I could win them all! 

All in favor?

Aye!   If I had a 2 second handicap, I'd totally almost win the 4D.

It already is handicapped with the 5-D system and then you can go to barrel races with Novice horse classes. Barrel racing has evolved to make it a game for everybody.
