im no expert and got no idea why you went of on me or Mattox. I just watched it again there were 16 to go and bacon came up beside Mattox and Mattox came off the track on the back straight at high speed avoiding contact with Bacon (Leader). Im not sure if he wanted to go to the pits or stay on the track but by the time he figured it out he was above the cushion in three and thus rather than take himself and others out, Backed out and brought out the yellow, He went to the work area, during such time Axom had a flat and went to the work area as well.
Im not a big fan of the work area. But he was in a no win situation. If he'd of exited he'd of possibly not got slowed enough to miss people standing at track exit. If he stayed in it, he'd of probably flipped.
Now All stars with their heat race work area and such. I can totally agree with, The USAC policy is fair IMO. You're view is free to be different.
