This same exact thing happened to me yestareday in my CF/S P.T Cruiser at a local track for our weekly points race... I was chasing a car that went deep. We both pre-staged then I let him put it in deep and I staged(shallow) he was dialed a 16.70 I was dialed a 14.50 he left and as I was waiting my tree started to come down and on the second amber my red came on I hadnt moved a bit......I was .466 red and my run was half a second off the whole run .... very strange I went to the tower and they said the new Starter flipped the switch twice because he didnt realize the other guy went deep(he didnt know if that was the problem or not) but thats all the track official could come up with, they let us re-run it and no problems for the rest of the day.....????
and BTW I was one of the 5 guys who had a .499 green back when Brockmeyers system first came out... why me? LOL
