NASCAR restarts

Spent the WHOLE weekend with NASCAR attempting to tackle Atlanta.

I only have one major complaint with this simulation, single file
restarts.  This belongs in Indycar NOT NASCAR!  How's a guy supposed to
get a lap back???

One minor complaint, would like to tell the pit crew to quit working on
repairs so I can get back out there and catch up with the field and come
back into the pits next time around.  

Of course the real answer to both of these complaints are...
1) Don't get lapped!!!
2) Don't damage the car!!!

(My poor wife only saw me for about 4 hours this weekend, but at least I
wasn't spending the weekend watching 6-8 hours of racing!)

Ah... are you sure?  If you're a lap down, you should be able to go to the
front of the second line of cars.  All of the cars on the lead lap line up
single file (usually on the outside?), then everyone else lines up next to
them in the order they're running... at least that's how it is in real Nascar.

Later...

That's how it's done in real Nascar, but I havn't figured out a way to
"get a lap back" like they do in the real world.  Has anybody been able
to pull to the inside.  If i try I get the stay behind # so and so
message.

Thanks,
Gerald
