There is always a lot more to a situation than most have privy to. NASCAR,INDY CAR,500 SPRINT TOUR ect... have proven to be beyond approach when it comes to their knowledge and professionalism, the public and fellow competitors only know that there was a DQ and why, all the other info is between the sanctioning body and the competitor.
Sir yes I HAVE. Many times for that matter. That track crew was an embarrassment! I was there the night the clean up guy was killed. Happened right in front of me. A couple of side by sides lit up fixes most of the on track stuff. The first one goes to the stopped car or accident. The 2nd stops before the scene to direct cars high or low. Would be very easy to stage these on the top side of the track in turn 3. And before you preach safety to me, watch how the big series do it. Once the situation is assessed, they can determine if the rest of the clean up team needs to come out.

On the DQ, I have no idea what happened other than the press release. If something was illegal, and they made the call, I give them credit. I stand behind what I said about teching before the race. It's not like they are pulling motors to be sent out.
