D.O Could you put the restart video up of Dustin. Dustin wasn't very happy with the call on the restart. He drove his a$$ off to get to the front. Thanks Don

I saw it on youtube. I don't know how they figure Dustin jumped the start. It was as clean a start as I've ever seen.

I miss the old days when the leader fired off in turn three. As soon as he hit the gas, it was live racing. It took the judgement call out of officials hands and usually kept everyone happy. That's been a few years ago though.
As far as Hollingsworth jumping, what I saw was his RF even with Parkers LR at the cone. They go over this in the drivers meeting every weekend in the pits. By Putnamville's rules, he jumped. I don't like that rule, but it's still a rule. And it's clearly stated what happens if you violate it. I can't speak for other instances in the night as I did not witness any. But that one was pretty clear to me. D.O. has a good point, move the cone up higher so that you have to stay in line. Or just change the rule to where as soon as the leader fires, you're live racing. That what I would sure prefer. Matt Smedley

While I like Delaware style restarts, they do cause alot of unnecessary cautions in my opinion, something the sprints definitely didnt need saturday night.
Lloyd why did you pull off the track in the feature? |
