I love how they keep saying it the most extraordinary thing they've ever seen. LOL
Announcers even saying they are going green, but flaggers are all waving the yellow.
Um... Safety car still on course and yellow flags everywhere!
That sucks!
***Edit*** I don't know whose mistake this would be... Pace car lights were out the whole time. He really should have pulled into the pits.
*** Another edit*** Ahh - didn't see the link to explanation to leading up to it. Pure fail on Pace car. Doh!

That sucks!
I watched the Grand Am race last night and was really confused by the grid boss at pit exit waving people to "go", with a red flag. What a ******* retard.

Orly? With a RED? LOL Here, you can go now, but please find a safe spot to stop when you get on track.

The officials and announcers didn't see a problem with it. If someone waves a red flag at me in any motion, laying stripes isn't my gut reaction.
