I was thinking the same thing, how did you reach the outside of the mirror.Dang you've got long arms.
And that was an interesting way to leave pit lane, looks like he problem could have been solved before it started by holding the outside lane?

Not sure who the lady in red and black jacket is, but she is the first one to blame.
Mebbe so. Mebbe not - dealio bad due to not pulling SM polesitter lane up after 1st split go from grid. Still mistook every way u see.

Wow what a mess. There had to be someone out there yelling I was 7th.....
I know there was one guy yelling "I was first" with a lot of #$%&^* and $%^&*( mixed in
I watched my race video and was surprised to see how mad I was during the grid mess and when we stopped for a black flag. I had buried the "Jersey" for almost 20 years, but in that 10 minute segment, it was like I never left and it all came right back to the surface.

What would have happened if the SM racers went and took there rightfull position, while on the track. Is that what Tony tried to do?
Pat
That would be a pass under the yellow. Yes that is what Tony did and that is why he was penalized.

Yes that is what Tony did. If we all went? Who knows what they would have done?
But there was a double yellow flying at all stations, so in my mind their was no decision to be made. The one thing that Tony didn't have the advantage/disadvantage of knowing was that Craig Berry was Dq'ed a few weeks earlier for assuming his rightful position on the pace lap. Blake was in that race, Sandlin ,Berry and I are good friends, so we all knew. So that meant at least 4 of the top seven weren't moving. A week later, it still stinks!

That is a damn shame for all. The same people that run the sprints don't run the runoffs do they?
Pat
No, different people. Hopefully this was a one time deal, been running the Sprints since 2006 and this was the only the first real disaster, well 2008 was a mess too That was 5 laps of racing.

We were at that race also. That was not much fun either.
