Although it is up to the individual racer to make decisions about their behavior at the track, if this truly happened, then the round of stock should have been postponed. That is truly unfair to any competitors who are there spending their money to have fun.
If this announcement was an error on the part of the event staff, the NHRA division 3 team as well as the track owners/operators at the very least owe these racers their entry fee back.

The false statement that stock was done and the correction were made in the same announcement, within 10 seconds of each other (where I was, several runs to the cooler were in progress but not completed). The first 3 byes in stock were broken cars. I'm not sure about the last 2.
