Re: What would your Div director do ?
Seems that the cold hard fact of a Malfunction should be the deciding factor. A good light, a bad light, a "relatively" good light wouldnt seem to matter. Re Run would seem in order on the basis of Malfunction unrelated to "subjective" evaluation of et, rx etc.
Micheal, it shouldnt have been up to him to "want " a rerun. Tower should have ruled based on what happened with the tree, nothing more. Last edited by Dick Butler; 07-25-2011 at 12:22 PM. |

Re: What would your Div director do ?
I'm with the RE-RUN crowd on this one.. the starter should have made the tower aware of a tree malfunction.. and if that was the left lane, that bulb was out at the Divisional last year.. they changed bulbs, then changed trees.. apparently they haven't gotten it right yet..

Re: What would your Div director do ?
As a Stock and bracket racer, I always looked at the bottom bulb, and never paid attention to the first and second amber's. Thus, a race like this wouldn't have affected me, as I would never have noticed it anyway (unless someone told me after). The race should have stood as called.

Re: What would your Div director do ?
The same thing happened to dad in 2001 at Earlville in the comp final. Div 5 director told me the top bulb is a "non factor" and then asked me why I was so worried about the top bulb. I told him that we followed the tree and his response was "he took the tree so its a race".

Correct. Everyone agrees that the tree malfunctioned. Everything beyond that point is irrelevant. Fix the tree and rerun it.
