The starter should have recognized the problem & should have had it corrected, isn't that part of his job?

Starters job is to run the race in a safe matter. Being a starter there is allot to pay attention to. Adding the job of verifying dial ins takes time away from safety. Driver is still responsible for dial in. If the driver needs help on checking boards have your pit crew verify for you.
