Lisa, Thanks for the update.

To say the yellow caused the crash is Ludicrous at best. It setup a restart on which the accident happened but IMHO thats grasping at straws considering ALL RULES and PROCEDURES were followed as PRE STATED.

Do I think the race could have continued without the caution? Probably but done as stated is just that.

The other scenario is that KT spun, It remains green and these cars run down KT at twice the speed. SOmeone else gets injured, then blames being laid on the starter for not throwing a yellow.

I wasn't trying to yell just emphasize.

Get well Darren.
Chuck
