[nydude2000]

I am not sure that this wasn't posted before but heard about this on the NESBA board

I will post it here. Normally would not do that but...anyway...I think that I had actually seen her at one of our track days here

Just has to make you think EVERY TIME YOU GET ON THE TRACK

Very sad story to read...still can't figure out why they didn't use the yellow flag to slow everyone up and clear the track.

There are a number of reasons they didn't have a flag, but it boils down to miscommunication. Even the story of bird vs. puck could be just some confusion to the story. I don't know how it makes a difference what was on the track. The point is that they didn't post a flag. We've had a number of incidences of something going out on the track or an accident and people not seeing it/paying attention. It's a sad story either way.
