FROM THE WINCHESTER WEBSITE: During the red flag stoppage Andy Anderson exited his Jack Bland owned no.41 and appeared to make some type of repair on his racer. Officials stepped in and told Anderson he would be sent to the rear of the field for the rule infraction. Not happy with the call, Anderson showed his displeasure, before finally taking his car to the pit area.Comment

He had brake fluid dripping onto his feet and only checked to see if the lid was on the master cylinders.. Of course they would write it up as if he changed gears.. 2 tires and moved the j-bar on the frame mount.. Long story short he was killing them and since he doesn't race there weekly they didn't like it.. I heard from a good source he called over to an official to come look and was ignored..So he got out and looked for himself.. But that's just hear-say of course..Comment

From Winchester website.
7. No work by the crew or driver may be performed on any car at any
time on the track
surface.
8. No crewmembers are allowed on the track except as requested by track
officials. Failure to comply will result in immediate disqualification.
9. In the interest of safety, during caution periods, officials may assist all
competitors with minor repairs such as dangling or rubbing sheet metal. The
official will decide whether the car needs to be sent to the pits for repairs.
RED FLAG RACING
1. All racing halts and the field must stop as soon as safely possible.
2. On an unplanned (crash) red, no one but the driver is allowed onto the track.
3. On an unplanned (crash) red, NO WORK is to be performed (I.e. no tools)
or the car will be penalized to the rear.
4. On a planned (fuel stop) red, tire gauges, air tanks, tear-offs, and fuel are
the only “equipment†permitted on the track during this red flag period. During
this period only two (2) crew members plus the driver per car are
allowed onto the speedway.
5. Scoring will revert back to the last lap, with the exception of those cars
involved in the incident which brought out the red flag conditions.
6. The pits are closed. Any car going to the pit’s forfeits its restart spot and
goes to the rear.
7. Cars leaving the crash scene or the pits fall in at the rear of the non-
penalized field in sequence Cars that elect to go to the pit area, will be
positioned behind those that were in the accident but elected not to go to the
pits.Comment
