I am not for hot lapping before the race but all Dave did was get a feel of his car thru turns 3&4 only, not a whole lap.
Mike Miles said in the drivers meeting that there was no hot lapping allowed when lining up. Dave did it so did Memmer, they were both asked to go to the back. The rule was clear and enforced fairly. Do you think that they should let them drive around until the car "feels good", maybe we should let them go in and out of the pits a few times until its "just right". Gimmie a break, if we did that we would still be in Bloomington waiting for the race to start.
