And then to confuse the situation even more....from the MSCS rulebook, "RESTARTS - On a restart, your car is not allowed to change position before it reaches the designated starting point on the track. Cars jumping the start will be penalized two (2) positions for each position gained. The penalty will be imposed at the time of the infraction!"

I would assume at Bloomington the white line in turn 4 is the designated starting point, and I bet the MSCS officials will state something to that effect in the driver's meeting in two weeks at the Josh Burton Memorial race. I have seen the MSCS officials throw the yellow, impose the sanction for the infraction for the driver who jumps the start, and then restart the race as stated in this rule.

I like that approach. Fix it right then and there..
