Did the MSCS officials feel that they erred by not throwing the caution sooner and that scoring Daron laps down would be unfair? That is the conclusion that I arrived at. Anybody have any comments on this?

You are correct...I did not see Daron stopped in turn 3. The track officials thought I did but when I did not go yellow they told me he was there. The water truck blocks my view of that spot( the size of a sprint car) so I missed it. To stop any thoughts on the water truck being there ....it is in the infield for safety it holds alot of water if it is ever needed, and safety will not take second place. Daron being scored any laps down never came up or would have been done....my mistake not his. I am sorry that it happened, myself or any of the TSS\MSCS crew do not like when these things happen.
