This may sound silly, but is there some reason why some people should be immune from the only rule enforcement procedure we've got? Protestors aren't bad guys. There's (usually) no animosity, hatred,

Yes. Frequently, the question is, "What's the next car to finish?" And the easiest way to answer the question SHOULD be to look up at the course and see what car is about to finish. Frequently, a car

Note: It's not enough to say "Pilot". There are half a dozen different Michelin Pilot models listed on the Tire Rack web site. I think the relevant one is the Pilot MXX3, but I'm not certain. Mark

Right. And therefore on those courses, the starting interval may be longer out of necessity. But it still doesn't matter how long the course is, nor how many cars are on it at once. All that matters
