N2 Bug @ Dover

I'm racing Dover Downs in 20th spot. At the beginning of second lap a hug
crash occurs near the front of the pack. 4 cars are taken out, and from
that point on, lap times for the top ten cars are totally screwed up. 5
cars, (2nd, 3rd, 4th and 6th) never show a lap time. The 5th car shows -7.6
secs, while the 7th car shows 0.6.  This never changes for the duration of
the race (40 % length). Was a great crash, though.

You probably hit enter or shift while viewing F2.  That changes to a
updated at the second standings as to how much time is between YOU and
the car you are looking at on the standings.

Actually, he probably did not hit <enter>.  I've seen this happen
before.  I don't know if it was at Dover, it could have been Loudon.
