He shouldn't have even been sent to the rear, it wasn't a 360. It should have been scored as an inadvertent yellow and he should have restarted first which was his position on the last completed lap. There was no need for the yellow. I wanted to see Danner pass him again.

Im guessing East coast uses the same rule as National You spin and the caution will fly and you go to the tail. The flagman seen a car straight up and down, and threw the red.

It actually has to be at least a 360. If you spin say even 270 degrees, but unwind back the way you came. There is no yellow. There is no rule about straight up and down either. Technically it was a backflip with a full twist. A case can be made for the full twist being a 360 in the vertical dimension. I switched to Dirt Vision and in the Outlaw race someone did a 360 and they threw the yellow, but he got his spot back because he didn’t stop, which makes way more sense.
