Amen. I got a BS BF for passing on a restart once at Darlington (guys in
front of me wrecked out to the wall and I had to avoid to the inside) and we
could not get a clean restart after several attempts. The game kept up with
my lap count and since we couldn't get a good restart, all the yellow laps
added up to me getting DQ'd, never having had the chance to take a green,
and the field complete a entire lap UNDER green in which I could pit and
clear the BF. Everytime I would get to T3 after a restart and start down to
the apron, ANOTHER yellow would fly.
That's one of the bugs I wish they could fix. Don't DQ a guy until he has
had a legitmate chance to clear a BF. Didn't they put that command back in
for admins this go round tho? I argued about them deleting the ability to
clear BFs as an admin from N4 forward. I thought they had gotten that fixed,
again, in 2003 back to like it was in N3 where admins could throw and clear
BFs and YFs.
