@ShyteKreek465 жыл бұрын
I still believe that the whole stage racing thing came about so fans wouldn't complain about those mystery debris cautions they used to throw. Those were the ones where they didn't actually show the debris on camera. My dad and I would always say, "Brian France must be getting bored" because it always seemed to happen when one driver had a massive lead for a long time.

I won't say questionable cautions don't happen. But I can say without a shadow of doubt, just because you don't _see_ a problem, doesn't mean there _isn't_ a problem. August 19, 2001. ARCA race on the one mile dirt track in Springfield, Ill. Around lap 70-ish, one guy on the flagstand disappears. He had a heart attack. It was me. Odd coincidence. Dean Roper, truck racer Tony's dad, dies in his race car due to a heart attack, about twenty laps before I had mine. So much goes on at a race people don't see. Radio troubles which cause a misunderstanding, honorary starter bumping the caution light switch and turning it on. Getting an electrical shock when you touch the metal flagstand rail and the catch fence. Almost getting hit in the head with a piece of exhaust tubing, getting hit by lugnuts that get spit out from underneath the spinning tires of a car leaving pit road (also could be the cause of vibrations, or tire failures damaging the carcass of the tire), power failures, hornets nest in the flagstand. All of these things and more have happened to me. And that's just my time working with ARCA and occasional races with NASCAR. Doesn't include the times I was driving (locally), working on a pit or safety crew, or as a spotter. Sorry so long, but sometimes when things aren't what the seem, and people don't see it and others get blamed for something that they had nothing to do with, well, you get tired of it. Especially when it's something you were involved in.

At one time at Dover, that was the only way in and out of the track. There was no tunnel, and their were small buildings spread out over the infield for track operations including the horse racing track, so no room for a helicopter. That did change after a total redo of the infield.

You didn't get the all time best. In the 80's, turn 4, Daytona, Bobby Allison's rear bumper. Not the bumper bar, not the bumper cover. The stock, metal rear bumper! Speculation was that it was rigged to get knocked off if Bobby slowed down to avoid something, someone might tap it, or in a tight draft, knocking it off. Except it fell off without contact. I think Gary Nelson was the crew chief. Second only to Smokie Yunick, when it came to "questionable" rule compliance.

I worked in ARCA for about nine years, a couple of those years part time for NASCAR. Only twice was someone sent out near the track to pick up anything. Both were under caution. I was asked to pick up something at the beginning of pit road when I was the one who opened or closed pit road. And once someone to get a tire that rolled away. Both were on tracks over a mile with the pace car on or almost to the backstretch. (My 94 year-old mom would have had enough time) Both times they were races that was going way too long, and wanting to shorten up a caution four or five laps after we just had one, helped make those calls.
