If I read it right this was in a practice start before a fun race. Not even for a win

So the guy who took the others out was definitely at least 2 off in the brake zone. They were single file so it looks like a restart after a double yellow.

Per some rennlisters that were also chatting about this fustercluck it was during some practice starts before a fun race. That wouild explain the driver in the first first video not hammering on it and his WTF? coment at the end.

That was just a stupid f-in decision by the Kamikaze drover .... he had clear sight, plenty of time to prepare, didn't need to put 2 off, was a practice start(?), wasn't going to win on the 1st lap, good weather, etc.....

He should pay for everyone else' car repairs.

Not a practice, this was a restart after a few laps of FCC. Hence the fast cars mixed in with slower ones.

Sure, a boneheaded move, but many wrecks are boneheaded moves, especially in a race. I'm surprised he's paying for all those repairs (although if I were a car he hit, I'm sure I'd feel entitled to it). Some on this board including yours truly have been much less fortunate even getting an apology...or acknowledgement!
