Default Re: Check Your Dial

A strange situation happened to me at a S/SS combo race a few years back. I was racing a super stock car that was about 2 seconds faster than me, but his dial was in wrong making him leave first. My tree is coming down and I see him leave which totally distracts me. I quickly look back at my tree, leave, go red by a ton, he wins. I argued that his dial should have never been accepted due to it being over his index, and that him unexpectedly leaving first would be a natural distraction to anyone in my situation. I was told I went red, so I lost. No rerun. I was not happy about it, but I did understand and went home.

Now I check both dails before I stage.
