There was a solution in another thread: make the rewards lap/distance based. 0 points gives you $0 and 0 RP and EVERYONE who plays URL hates that, it's the reason why I won't play it anymore. So when first place finishes 1000 laps ahead of you and you are unable to finish, you'd be rewarded on how much of the race you were able to complete, regardless of points.
