The only loop I've put on is our Studebaker and its more toward the rear. I know that where its located either end can break and neither hit the ground. Just curious.

Yes, it would still hit the ground, but it would just drag. I think the real fear is that if the front lets go, it could tear up the tunnel and anything (anyone) directly above it.

There's no reason why you couldn't run two loops. One front and one rear, but the NHRA rules require only the front one.
