I think I would have stayed in position on the pace lap, done my best, and then raised holy hell when the race was over.

looks like the person working grid misunderstood his signal and thought he was not supposed to go...?

just miscommunication between the driver and the worker

Then it's just midcommunication when he runs her over or out of the way!

he should have started and then let the guy slip in front of him. But that was pretty stupid to hol dhim there like that. The worker prety much jumped in his way when he started to go.

with a field that large you don't have time to ask the driver how many cars he wants in front of him. per the rulebook, if you hesitate when told you go, you go to the back.

additionally, it was a race for his rookie license and i think he was supposed to start in the back anyway.

Right, but if he didnt fix the situation 5 minutes before the field goes off, then tough shit and dont worry about it. If the grid worker for a 70 car field tells you to go, you go NOW, or you start from the back.

I guess cause there are so many cars, the grid workers can't be expected to keep track of all of the positions, so like you said, go NOW, or don't
