he drove through the water box (first no-no, but whatever) and then just launched and went without staging at the lights. the other car was probably cleaning off his tires and he thought OH **** ITS ON GOGOGOOGOG.

pretty much.

the only time would be with slicks, street tires and the water pit do not mix. Majority of the time you just drive around it and stage.
