Re: Olympic rule to be carried over to stock
To answer your question Carl, no I didn't. I went red. The racer I mentioned is very well known and was in the lanes only a few cars behind me with 20 plus cars behind him. When we flipped for lanes I asked him if we could go on down. There were probably 15 or so pairs already in the lanes. He said he would be right down and then waited until every other car was in the lanes. The guy I was racing in super gas waited for me to get there. Then as it turned out, I waited for him. When he went to start his car it backfired and caught on fire. I waited for them to get the fire out and get strapped back in, even though the officials were telling me to pull out. I could have pulled out and gotten an easy win, but I chose to do the right thing. On the other hand the super stock racer chose to do the wrong thing, and because of that, super gas couldn't be finished up until I got there and that backed up the rest of the program.
Carl, I also agree that there are some standup guys that wait for the right reasons, not looking for a free round.
