Even driving through is an unfair penalty if they lose spots. Also, no way Reddick was fast enough to scheme that up, total fluke and a tweak on his part.

@Mike Clark What?!? Abuse the system? Every driver drives as fast as possible to the pit line already. That line would due nothing unless a caution where to come out while driver where committed to pit line. Not saying it needs to be 1000ft before the cone, but it should be close enough to say that pass this point you will not be able to turn with hitting the cone. And your committed to pit road. And most of the if drivers are pitting under green everyone else is about to do the same anyways, and if they dont the going to do it under caution. So theres no gain

@Mr.Magicstick

No. There doesn’t. The last thing in the world this sport needs is more judgment calls or things the racers can do to gain an advantage when things like this happen, because I PROMISE you, if you’re rule was a thing, every single caution at every single track anyone close to pit road would try to game the system. Harvick didn’t have to pit. At the end of thr day it’s that simple, he LITERALLY could have just driven through.

@Mike Clark But he was Committed to pit road, With zero chance of turning to miss it. There needs to be a line before the cone, That if you pass it and the yellow comes out you should be able to pit. Because it doesn’t give the 4 advantage if anything it gave the 45 the advantage because they where never going to make it before the cone and got a caution that they caused and needed to keep the lead. And the 4 had to go behind the lap down cars Tail end

@Mike Clark thats what i was saying

@Kharn The Betrayer

I don’t believe that is true. You are literally the first person that has said that, even the former crew chiefs have said that he should have just drove through, I think they’d know.

@Mike Clark exit is stopped till the field has passed, he would’ve be at the end of the field no matter what.

@Mike Clark exit of pit road is held/closed till the field has passed. That would’ve got him the same penalty which is tail end of the longest line.
