    Bring out a caution if u want to, but u shouldn't get the lucky dog and make up a lap by doing so.

        That is what they tell them on the Raceceiver. No Harm No Foul that's where that comes from.

          How in the world is it not different ???????You don't have a flat on purpose .... do u ??????He was the tail so he could not lose any positions !!!!

It's a very convoluted explanation and sounds a little fishy to me since they could just make up who was where and attribute it to either the race monitor or the flag man.
              It’s really not that difficult. The whole field did not race to lap 51

He had to go to the tail of the lead lap cars just like any other car that pits. Wasn't very many laps later a caution came and he could have pitted then and made the same adjustment along with tires. That's what Clanton did late in the race and ran 5th. Lucas made these rules several years ago. Hud played by the rules and won. EPJ could have pitted. Maybe if he did he could have been fast enough to win.

                  Well the person on the Raceceiver is also wrong. If it really wasn't a foul then if they did it again then they wouldn't be put back a row. Like in baseball.. first two swings are not an out but they are still strikes.

                      It's not a foul the first time, it's a mulligan. The second time you go back a row.

                        Clearly dirtSLMracing has no idea who he is arguing with. Perhaps you guys could offer him a job so everything that comes across the raceceiver 100% correct.

                          The rules were applied exactly as they are written. Hudson brought the yellow out after he had received the lucky dog.

                            How can a driver do something wrong, which is jumping the start and it not be a foul? You get two fouls before you go back a row. Just like in baseball.. you get 3 strikes before you are out. The first 2 are still strikes.. it's the 3rd one where you are out.

                              1- I'm not arguing.. just stating facts.

                              2- I can stress this part enough.. I dont give a rat's behind who anyone is on this site.
