No opinions on the incident at Osceola?
I see no one has mentioned the incident at Osceola on Saturday's Pro-Am race a few weeks ago. SS semi final round.

Re: No opinions on the incident at Osceola?
I saw it, Scott Pearson had already done his burnout before the other guy got to the staging lanes, when the other guy got there he got out of his car and started checking his tires, the starter told scott to stage so he did, tree came down and scott took the single, then ihra decided a rerun was in order, bad call in my opinion

Re: No opinions on the incident at Osceola?
Why did the officials decide to rerun them? I know he argued that he had just run his stocker and had little time to get back with his SS. But from where I sat, he had crew that should have known to bring the car up to the staging lanes, and have someone bring him up when he dropped off his stocker. I saw that that's what the crew did for the finals.Seems to me that when you drive in two classes that run back to back, you'd think that he would have known enough to have the second car up there in the lanes waiting for him.Woudn't ya?

I ran Scott Pearson Sunday in the Semi-finals and was not even racing or at the track on Saturday when the "incident" happened.

Re: No opinions on the incident at Osceola?
Wow, if the driver exits the vehicle past the ready line, you are OUT!
Why would the tires need set? I set mine after the first pass of the day and never touch them again. ??? Why would you drive the car to the ready line, if you ain't ready? Re-run? Total B.S.
