I'd agree with Gary; things were running so slow as it was, it was hard to believe that with the pit man holding the car about 60 feet from the grid, they'd go without the TQ of the race. If things had been punctual all week, it would be understood.
I think the race crew did an amazing job; taking care of peoples needs, keeping the show moving even with the intermittent rain, making the nationals work on a temporary track and more. That said, many of the people running the show seemed to have very little experience with big races like this. Why didn't ROAR have somebody there who had race directed a nationals before? Even just as a consultant. You can't fault any of the race crew, they did awesome, but ROAR came up way, way short.
