It did take of professionalism to come on here and make the apology. However no flagman should ever have been put in this unsafe position in the first place. USAC should have just called the race before it even started. USAC not only put the drivers safety in jeopardy but they put the officials and fans life in a dangerous position. I learned something very important in life on my first day in the Army. Its safety first and to this day even though I am now retired from the military safety is always number 1.
