In the pit meeting they say if you bring out a yellow in the heat, You're out, if you are the cause of 2 in the feature, You're out. I believe if you have the bad luck to be caught up in more than 2 but not be the actual cause of the yellow, the officials will make the decision to let you keep going, case by case, judgement call. This is from discussion I had with Officials.

Yes, It's frustrating having bad luck but it happens, there are no "do-overs" in racing. If you're in a yellow, you have to restart at the back, just part of racing.

How come then race after race I see the same people cause the wreck and they drive off and the person in the wreck gets penolized, I think we need some new rules or new score keepers who can see the problem and make the right call according to the situation and not the rule.

Yes it happens every week. Some one causes the problem n drives off so they were involved as u say but they are not penalized. Why is that? That's all I get to say so I don't get erased by Raceway Park

The moral of the story is, don't be sitting when the yellow comes out, don't be in the yellow. I've been going to the races for a long time, I can tell you before the race which cars will be on a hook or sitting in the infield every nite, and unfortunately they take out other racers while they do it, there will always be better racers and less talented racers, then throw them together and watch out!Quit blaming officials for your problems! They are not driving the cars! You Are! Get it together! Just My Opinion.

BMS, good point, I'd need bigger * to drive, most of my comment is refering to the Sportmod race, I'll watch them this Sunday and see how they do.
