What a lame excuse! If he had looked to the flag stand as he should have as he exited the corner, he would have seen the yellow flag way in advance. Instead, he screwed up and the NASA officials got nervous and pulled everyone in. We lost half a session because he didn't look for flags. We could have stayed out under a full course or maybe a local yellow if it weren't for him.

What the hell? As I'm climbing in and out of the window of my R32 Dru's car is on the fast track to recovery. I had to cancel my next HPDE to help pay for the $9 grand worth of damage.

Anyways, glad there wasn't too much damage to the RS.
