Great result for DiBurrito. Tops his previous best of sixth at Bristol in 2016. I always hoped to see him in a really good Cup ride for a few races but guess he'll never get that chance.After Nascar letting the drivers know it was going green in a few laps and he was the first one not to pit. There's quite a few drivers out there who have every right to be angered.acerogers58 wrote: ↑4 years ago Justin Haley wins his first race in his third cup series start after a gamble he won with the rain
The Pace car lights went out, with one lap to green. And then, while a few drivers had pitted, including Kurt Busch, the lights went on again and the race was red flagged. Not the first time Kurt has been nailed by this.John wrote: ↑4 years ago After Nascar letting the drivers know it was going green in a few laps and he was the first one not to pit.

Turned on midway through, and it seems like they have sorted out the plate races. It was fun.
But don't you think then that they should have reverted back to the previous lap's running order?Ian-S wrote: ↑4 years ago Nobody got screwed over, the pace car lights went off at the start/finish line and they got one to go, then there was a lightning strike as the field were on the back stretch, and the legal fallout from the Pocono deaths a few years ago has caused NASCAR to be super risk averse and I believe it was part of the settlement that they implement a lightning strike procedure.
It's not like they knew where and when the Lightning strike was going to happen and conspired against Kurt Busch, if I was a crew chief, knowing there had been lightning strikes 20 miles away heading this way, I'd have told my driver to stay out until they ran out too, not pitted him like Busch's chief did.
I've never known them to do that previously?SB83 wrote: ↑4 years agoBut don't you think then that they should have reverted back to the previous lap's running order?Ian-S wrote: ↑4 years ago Nobody got screwed over, the pace car lights went off at the start/finish line and they got one to go, then there was a lightning strike as the field were on the back stretch, and the legal fallout from the Pocono deaths a few years ago has caused NASCAR to be super risk averse and I believe it was part of the settlement that they implement a lightning strike procedure.

I mean like how if a pass happens after a yellow, the order is reverted to the way it was before the yellow lights came on.Ian-S wrote: ↑4 years agoI've never known them to do that previously?SB83 wrote: ↑4 years agoBut don't you think then that they should have reverted back to the previous lap's running order?Ian-S wrote: ↑4 years ago Nobody got screwed over, the pace car lights went off at the start/finish line and they got one to go, then there was a lightning strike as the field were on the back stretch, and the legal fallout from the Pocono deaths a few years ago has caused NASCAR to be super risk averse and I believe it was part of the settlement that they implement a lightning strike procedure.
