Clauson picks up the win with Pickens in 2nd and Coons in 3rd.

Loyet starts on the pole of his heat, goes wire to wire winning the heat and then after the race is over he's penalized 2 POSITIONS for "Jumping the start". How do you jump the start when you're on the pole. Also, If somehow he jumped the start, why wouldn't they throw a yellow and restart rather than wait till AFTER the race to penalize him?

Exactly. Maybe that's how they call it there? You should give the pole car a second chance before being penalized and do it before re-starting the race as to create a new line up moving the other cars into place.

I totally agree with you. Maybe some Kiwi could explain if they do it differently down under.

If I heard the interview correct , they changed there call after reviewing the call .

here's the audio

No you didn't hear the interview correctly. Initially Loyet was penalized 2 positions and Scott Buckley (Kiwi) was penalized 1 position. They both appealed but ONLY Buckley's penalty was rescinded! That's how Buckley was given "credit" for the win.

Thanks for postn Audio link for all on here!!.........

Brucer'

Did he start on the inside or outside? I think if I remember right, the outside is actually considered position 1 and the inside is P2. That might help a little as to why he was penalized. Again this is off memory from being there 8 years ago so I could be totally wrong...lol
