Oops. I forgot while I was writing. There's a specific reason not to use Parton's fair race rule with an absolute doublemove game of Absolute Colorboundmost Chess. The reason is that symmetrical play gives Black a guaranteed draw!
An alternate approach to balancing Colorboundmost Chess would to follow the path used in other double-move variants -- only have white make a single move on their first move. I would suggest having white make their first move on white, so that each player would make the first move on their King's color. Once you have white making only a single starting move, it should no longer be possible for black to mirror white, so race rules could be applied.
